JEANETTE ENG - Co Host

Jeanette Eng is our "PROFILES" Co-Host, her on-camera presence is an addicting combination of Tina-Fey humor and Rachel Ray perkiness, delivered with Oprah-sized visions.

The variety in Jeanette’s repertoire is refreshing and she has learned to prepare herself only to be surprised. Faith in God’s plan, however, has kept her grounded and assured that she need not worry. She is aware of the incredible people and opportunities that have graced her life thus far and strives to remain grateful every day.

Jeanette's ethnic background is Chinese and academic background is journalism. “Not exactly a good combo,” she says! Eng jokingly blames the Chinese “fear-of-the-arts syndrome” for her delayed maturation process. Slowly but surely, however, Jeanette has evolved from writer to news reporter to entertainment reporter to television personality to model!
