On LinkedIn, Acosta, a longtime favorite of the station’s viewership, said in an August 19 post that she will join\u00a0FirstDay Foundation, a charitable organization that works with nonprofits,\u00a0as Director of Media Relations. Acosta joined KSAT in 2018 and became a familiar face on “Good Morning San Antonio,” covering major stories across South Texas. Before arriving in San Antonio, she reported in Sacramento and Corpus Christi.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I traded the newsroom for a new kind of storytelling,” Acosta wrote in the post. “…I’m taking my love of storytelling, connecting with people and shining a light on the work happening in our communities into this new role. FirstDay Foundation\u2019s mission is simple but powerful: ‘Making Good, Greater.’ The Foundation supports nonprofit organizations doing meaningful work for children, families and communities \u2014 here at home and around the world.”<\/p>\n

She added, “I’m looking forward to helping tell those stories, elevating the organizations doing this important work and sharing the impact they’re making every day.”<\/p>\n

In early August, she announced her exit from the station after eight years. In her announcement, Acosta reflected on the personal milestones<\/a> she experienced during her time at KSAT, including buying a home, getting married and starting a family. She also welcomed her first child earlier this year after announcing her pregnancy in 2024.<\/p>\n

“I am most sad about leaving my KSAT family behind,” she wrote. “Thank you to our viewers who have been so warm and welcoming to me, and I will continue to see you around San Antonio.”<\/p>\n

While it’s a big change, Acosta said she feels like FirstDay Foundation is a “pretty great place to land.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On LinkedIn, Acosta, a longtime favorite of the station’s viewership, said in an August 19 post that she…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":422406,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[2107,820,82,84,83],"class_list":["post-422405","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-antonio","tag-mysaentertainment","tag-mysastaff","tag-san-antonio","tag-san-antonio-headlines","tag-san-antonio-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/422405","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=422405"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/422405\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/422406"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=422405"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=422405"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=422405"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
