JEN PICCIANO

A Cleveland native and life long Browns, Indians and Cavs fan...Jen Picciano is happy to be back in her hometown.

She comes to us from KJTV in Lubbock Texas, where she spent 4 years. Jen anchored the evening newscasts and covered courts, crime and politics during her general assignment reporting days. Her coverage earned her an award for excellence from the State Bar of Texas.

Jen joined the morning team at 19 Action News as the traffic anchor, making sure you get to work safely and on time!  She is now a general assignment reporter.

A graduate of the Scripps School of Journalism at Ohio University, she majored in broadcast journalism and Spanish and studied abroad in Spain after graduating from West Geauga High School.

Jen is thrilled to be back in Ohio and is ready to cheer on the Buckeyes, enjoy the seasons and take advantage of all the great things to do in Cleveland. If you don't find her with her nose in a newspaper or magazine, she's probably traveling, cooking, or golfing!
