Eleanor Nash
Intern, Up To DateAs an intern for KCUR's Up To Date, my goal is to bring relevant and meaningful voices on the show and ensure that their stories shine on the air.
Previously, I was a production intern at Ekos Media, a podcasting company based in Madrid, Spain. In 2021, I graduated from Wellesley College, outside of Boston. I assistant produced the Rural Matters podcast in the spring of 2021 and interned at WNYC’s On the Media in the summer of 2020. In my free time, you can find me making homemade boba or watching Jeopardy.
