Cheryl Tan

Cheryl Tan wears many hats at WAVY-TV 10 and sister station, FOX 43. She anchors, reports, and currently shares morning traffic troubles with viewers on WAVY-TV 10's #1 weekday morning newscast that starts at 5 a.m. On FOX 43, she co-hosts a new morning show that begins at 7 a.m.

Cheryl began her journalism career in radio news, as an intern at WINA radio in Charlottesville, where she learned the ropes while at the University of Virginia. She got her first on-air break as a TV reporter at Fox 24 in Macon, Georgia. As a one-man band reporter, she shot, edited, and wrote all of her own pieces. She quickly moved up to weekend anchor and left the station as its main anchor. From there, she moved to Richmond, where she was the weekend anchor at WRIC-TV 8.

Cheryl enjoys being involved in her church and her community. She gets her exercise, too, running after her three little boys.
