Chierstin Roth joined the CBS News Colorado team in February 2025 and is excited to be back in the state where her career began as the first full-time female sports anchor in Colorado Springs.
Before coming to Denver, Chierstin was an Emmy-winning sports reporter and anchor in Colorado Springs, Knoxville, Tennessee and Phoenix.
During her time in Phoenix, Chierstin anchored an NFL postgame show and high school football show, among several others, while also getting to cover big events such as the NBA Finals and the Phoenix Open. She had a blast in that role while also teaching the next generation of journalists at her alma mater, Arizona State's Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communications.
In order to try something new, Chierstin took a break from reporting to work in government communications, gained her real estate license and launched her own social media management and content creation company.
It didn't take long to realize her heart belonged to journalism, and she couldn't be happier to return to her passion of telling stories that impact our local communities here in Colorado.
In her free time, Chierstin loves to attend Broncos, Avs, Nuggets, CU football and basketball, and DU hockey games. She also spends as much time as possible with family, trying out the Denver food scene, and taking her dog, Newman, on adventures.
