This autumn, I have taken on three new editorial interns. If
you attend any of our upcoming events, like the recent Tomato Taste, you are
bound to run into one or more of them. As a first writing assignment, I asked
them to write a short introduction to our readers...
Hi! My name is Nicole Reisinger (pictured at left) and I am
a senior multiplatform journalism major and history minor at the University of
Maryland Philip Merrill School of Journalism. I’m excited to spend this
semester going to the numerous horticulture events the DC area has to offer
and embracing the gardening culture that connects this community. I grew up
maintaining gardens with my family and have experience working with a premier
floral designer in Annapolis, so I love getting my hands dirty in the name of
creating something beautiful. Journalism has an awesome power that is able to
unite people and I look forward to having the chance to do so with the Washington
Gardener. I cannot wait to learn more about this community its passion for all
things gardening!
My name is Maeve Dunigan (pictured center) and I’m a senior
multiplatform journalism major at the University of Maryland, College Park. My
on-campus positions include being a Senior Staff Writer for The Diamondback and
a Student Ambassador for the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center. In the past,
I have worked in science journalism, as an intern for the University of
Maryland’s Earth System Science Interdisciplinary Center. I have also worked
for the College Park City-University Partnership where I served as the
Communications and Digital Content Development Intern. In the fall of 2016, I
was lucky enough to study media abroad for five months at The Hague University
of Applied Sciences in The Netherlands. I am so excited to grow my knowledge of
horticulture while interning for Washington Gardener this semester!
Hi Washington Gardener readers! My name is Uyen (pronounced
when) Nguyen (pictured at right) and I am a senior multiplatform journalism
major, with a minor in business, at the University of Maryland. I was born in
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and raised in Baltimore city. My experience in journalism is mainly on the
UMD campus, it includes working as assistant managing editor at The Diamondback,
some freelance reporting for various campus publications and as the fitness
editor for The Campus Trainer. I personally do not have horticulture
experience. but I never say no to trying different types of food so I am very
excited to learn how to grow my own! I look forward to being one of three
interns this fall for Washington Gardener and getting the opportunity to target
local readers and attend gardening events in the area.
