CHERYL COSIM
Cheryl Kathleen Cosim, or Yeng, as she is fondly called, started her career in ABS-CBN in 1996 as a walk-in applicant for reporter. She went through the cadetship program for six months and then became a reporter for Studio 23. In 1997, she became the weather girl of Alas Singko Y Medya (ASYM). From then on, she started hosting the early morning show, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Since then, Yeng has been in and out of morning shows. For eight years, she hosted ASYM (which was later reformatted to Magandang Umaga Bayan and Magandang Umaga Pilipinas). In 2006, she began waking up an hour earlier to anchor DZMM’s Gising Pilipinas which aired daily at 4:00 AM.
At present, she co-anchors DZMM’s Usapang de Campanilla with Atty. Danny Concepcion and Atty. Claire Castro; and Para Sa ‘Yo, Bayan! with Vice-President Noli de Castro. She also hosts ABS-CBN’s public service program Salamat Dok on weekends and contributes stories for TV Patrol World.
