Brooklyn College graduate Nanda Saboia has been selected for the prestigious Television Academy Foundation Internship Program. She is one of just 40 students chosen by Television Academy members from across the country for the 2024 Summer Internship Program. The Foundation offers paid internships at top Hollywood studios and production companies annually to college students nationwide.
Saboia received a Master of Fine Arts in film production from Brooklyn College in 2024. She will be a scripted series development intern this summer in Los Angeles, California, at Bristol Circle Entertainment, the company founded by former President of Sony Pictures Television Studios Jeff Frost, through the Foundation’s program.
Born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Saboia attended Colégio Recanto High School in Brazil.
“Growing up in Brazil admiring American TV, the Television Academy and the Emmys seemed out of reach,” said Saboia. “I am incredibly honored to be selected to be an intern this year. I dream that this won't be the last time Television Academy members vote for me.”
