Today I am joined by a co-host, Eleanor Mayes—and let me introduce Eleanor!
Hi I’m Eleanor Mayes, I currently serve as a production assistant and transcription director for COVIDCalls. I recently completed my masters in materials science and engineering at the University of Minnesota this past semester, and previously attended the university of Chicago for my undergraduate degree. I will attend UC Berkeley this fall, in their new Master’s of Design program.  In my spare time I enjoy reading about typography, disability studies, LGBTQ+ activism, and the history of science.
You can hear COVIDCalls anytime recorded as podcasts on spotify, iTunes, podbean or anywhere you get podcasts.
