Episode Details

In this episode, we talk with Emmy-nominated meteorologist Cheryl Nelson, ’02 EMS, about her journey from Penn State to national broadcast news and beyond.

Cheryl shares why she almost didn’t choose Penn State (but is grateful she did!), how her connection to the University only deepened after graduation, and what shaped her career in broadcast meteorology. 

We also discuss what inspired her to launch Prepare with Cher, LLC, where her mission is to help communities stay safe before, during, and after extreme weather.
