Glad you made it here!

​My name is Simon Okediji and I’m a first-year PhD student in the rhetoric and composition program at Georgia State University. I’ve previously worked as a teaching assistant and writing center consultant at The University of Alabama where I earned a master’s degree in Composition, Rhetoric, and English Studies. In my academic life, I prioritize representation, access, inclusion, and equity to promote effective learning and high student success. When I’m not in class teaching or somewhere researching, I enjoy spending time with his family, reading good (not necessarily academic) books, or volunteering for community-based groups.
