Hello, everyone! My name is Alexandra Marquez, although most
people call me Sasha. I am a rising junior journalism and anthropology major at
the University of Maryland and I’ll be working as an intern for Washington
Gardener Magazine through August. I am a Silver Spring, MD, local and my
mother is a gardening enthusiast, so I grew up with a beautiful backyard filled
with colorful flowers and delicious fresh herbs and vegetables. I already have
an appreciation for local gardening, but I’m excited to learn even more! I
previously covered science and technology for The Diamondback at the
University of Maryland, so I’m incredibly excited to expand my writing skills
by covering all things gardening! My high school newspaper, Silver Chips,
also served the local Silver Spring and Takoma Park communities, so I’m excited
to connect with people from my hometown again as well. All in all, I’m hoping
to have a great summer growing tomatoes, learning about gardening and writing
to serve the great Washington Gardener community. I’m looking forward to
meeting you all at different events and gatherings throughout the summer and I
hope you’ll come introduce yourself if you happen to see me!
