My name is Aicha Bangoura (pictured at right) and I'm currently a senior studying journalism in
Philip Merrill College at the University of Maryland. After freelancing diverse stories for several
publications, including the Montgomery County Sentinel, I finally landed a role as a copyeditor for
a student-run digital publication called Stories Beneath the Shell, which I still work for. With my
experience, I plan to show and tell stories about the beauty of the ecosystem and the people
who contribute to it. In my earlier school days, I took classes that involved planting and I
enjoyed the process and anticipation. I’m ready to start a brand new journey as an intern at the
Washington Gardener Magazine.
Hi! My name is Lauren Bentley (pictured at left) and I am currently a senior studying at the University of Maryland. I am a double major in journalism and criminology and criminal justice. I've written all throughout high school and college. Most recently, I worked at the Howard Center for Investigative Journalism, part of the university's Capital News Network. In my free time, I enjoy running, reading, baking, and hanging out with my friends. I am so excited to be working for the Washington Gardener this upcoming spring, and hope to expand my knowledge and skill-level in gardening.
