WMDT 47 News - Delmarva's ChoiceEmily Lampa

Hello I'm Weekend Anchor Emily Lampa. During the week you'll find me reporting out in the field, then Friday and Saturday I'm anchoring the evening newscasts. I'm a Jersey girl at heart, but proud to now call Delmarva home. I joined the WMDT 47 News team in February 2011.  Before that, I worked in Orlando as a General Assignment Reporter for Central Florida News 13. I also braved the extreme snowy winters to report the news of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.   

I graduated from Rowan University in Glassboro, NJ with a BA in Communications.  During my time there, I interned at WCAU NBC10 Philadelphia - which led to my first news job as a production assistant.

Even as a young girl, I always knew I would end up as a broadcast journalist.  But it was in high school, where I first realized my dream - anchoring for Cherry Hill High School West's weekly news show "The West Report".  To this day, I still credit my high school broadcast teacher Joseph Truitt for kicking off my career.   

I was born in Philadelphia and grew up in Cherry Hill, NJ.  In my spare time I enjoy movies, watching tv, reading, snowboarding, bowling, traveling, and ballroom dancing.  But most of all, I love spending time with my husband Nick, two-year-old daughter Eva, and our three legged cat, Katie.    

Be sure to catch me on WMDT 47 & Delmarva's CW 3 - and check out my facebook page to see what I'm up to this week.
