Megan Gayken AUx Instructor & Advisor Office of Undergraduate Education and Academic Student Services

Degrees: MA, Rhetoric and Composition, Oregon State University
Bio: I started at AU in October of 2022 as an AUx Instructor and First-Year Advisor. Before coming to AU, I taught first-year writing courses, worked as a researcher, and managed literary and education events. I earned my Master of Arts in rhetoric and composition from Oregon State University, where I studied queer and trans rhetorics and pedagogies of love and care. In my personal life, I am working on perfecting a macaron recipe, I enjoy roller skating, and I am learning how to embroider.
