Gina Cancelliere

Meteorologist, 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. news

CN8

 

It’s been sunny skies for CN8 chief meteorologist Gina Cancelliere, 27, since she graduated from Penn State a few years ago.  Right out of school, Cancelliere snagged a job at the ABC affiliate in Miami, Florida (television market #17), where she met her fiancé, anesthesiologist Dr. Vivek Srinarayana.

 

After freelancing in Los Angeles last year, Cancelliere joined CN8 in Philadelphia where she is the youngest weekday evening weather anchor in town.

 

“It’s great to be here because lots of my friends from Penn State live in Philadelphia area.  After living in Los Angeles and Miami, I wanted to continue to live in a big city.”

 

A resident of the Northern Liberties section of town, Cancelliere said she loves the restaurants in Philadelphia.

 

She also loves the people she’s working with – “The most important thing to me is my quality of life.  I enjoy being around people who care about their job and each other.”
