Intern News ReporterMy name is Jake Anthony, and I will be a senior at Elon University in the fall. I am a strategic communications major with a double minor in business administration and finance. I am from Fenwick Island, Delaware and I will be working remotely throughout my internship this summer. I have an interest in technology, politics, health, and fitness, as well as the environment. When not at the station I enjoy going to the beach, traveling, and time with my family.
