This fall, I have taken on an editorial intern, Zachary Intrater. Look for his author byline in our upcoming Washington Gardener Magazine issues and on this blog as well as in our GardenDC podcast credits. As a first assignment, I asked him to write a short introduction to our readers so you can get to know him.
Hello everyone, my name is Zachary Intrater and I’m very excited to be interning with the Washington Gardener this fall! I’m currently a senior journalism major at the University of Maryland in College Park, MD. At UMD, I work as the assistant managing editor for our student-run publication, The Diamondback. I worked my way up to this position after serving as a copy editor and then as copy chief over the past couple of years. As assistant managing editor, I’m the last person to look over a story before it gets published for fact-checking, grammar, structure, style, etc. I grew up right here in the DMV (Silver Spring, MD) and I’m very excited to use my skills as both an editor and a writer to contribute to the Washington Gardener in these coming months!
