After college, she hopes to be able to travel to Europe and Asia for the first time.

Galen Bizovi is a senior at Oregon State University studying dietetics and is pursuing a minor in writing. She is a passionate crafter, baker, rock climber, and begrudging runner. When she can not do any of those things she is found in bed, curled up with a good book and a piping hot cup of cocoa. Recipes inspire her to fuel her body for running, socializing, and trying new things. DIY’s are a particular favorite. 

Johnny Brunac (he/him/his) is a third-year student at Oregon State University pursuing a degree in Digital Communication Arts, along with a minor in Applied Journalism. He grew up in sunny Los Angeles, California before packing up and heading to OSU. When he’s not incessantly mouth popping around campus, you can find him either in a coffee shop working on whatever creative project he’s taken on that week, or walking around with friends playing Pokémon GO. He also enjoys a good Netflix binge, greasy food, warm blankets, and taking the time to write the next best American poetry book.

Bryce Clinton is a senior at Oregon State University pursuing a degree in Digital Communication Arts and a minor in Writing. He enjoys all types of writing styles but is drawn to the creative forms that allow him more freedom. Outside of his literary pursuits he can often be found editing videos, playing sports, and hanging out with his cat, Solo. Bryce considers himself an amateur chef at best, though his vast knowledge of food-based warfare will have you wondering about the cleanliness of his kitchen. Decent guy.

Maya Cohen is a fourth-year student studying Women, Gender, and Sexuality. Born and raised in Portland, Oregon, she is used to the chilly climate, and loves to forage for mushrooms during the rainier months. She enjoys cooking extravagant brunches with friends, incorporating locally grown and found ingredients. On nice evenings, Maya can be found sipping a Truly while watching the sun set from the roof of her garage, or skating through the neighborhood.

M.Sloane Crowell is a junior studying Agricultural Science. With hair that changes with the seasons and a collection of coats that would make a Victorian faint, this bohemian is always making plans as to where to go next. On an average evening one may find Sloane making painfully outdated references, or finding new ways to smudge paint while ignoring any and all time related obligations. With waning academic desires and a drive to adventure they’re one bad day away from committing Grand Theft Equine. To help the author in their journey through academia and to keep a horse off the streets they kindly ask “please send dog pics” to 867-5309.

Morgan Grindy is a junior at Oregon State University, majoring in marketing and minoring in applied journalism. She was born in Portland, Oregon, grew up in Bend, Oregon and plans to spend much more time in Oregon in the future. Outside of school, she is the Editor-in-Chief of OSU’s online lifestyle magazine. She’s very passionate about journalism and hopes to continue working in that field in the future, after graduation.

Olivia Harband is a senior studying merchandising management and minoring in sustainability at Oregon State University. She enjoys eating almost every food especially if it has hot sauce on it and chipotle mayo has a special place in her heart. After interning at Collectively Inc. an influencer marketing agency in San Francisco, Olivia has been fascinated with brand storytelling through the power of social media. When it was announced that the theme of this issue of Buckteeth would be “Culture,” the incorporation of Instagram was a must to her. She has an extreme scrolling addiction but likes to think of it as “research” at this point. When she’s not looking at her phone, she enjoys writing, reading and almost anything related to food or fashion.

Alan Jozwiak is an English-Education double major at Oregon State, who will begin student teaching in the fall of 2020. Raised in an outdoorsy family, he loves getting out into the mountains or forests whenever and wherever he can. His love for food is equally as strong as his love for nature, and you can catch him at McDonald’s just as much as you can catch him going on a hike. And with great cooks in the family, he gets to enjoy a full range from fast food to culinary delights. Working on Buckteeth Magazine has allowed him to delve further into this passion.

Matthew Kawakami is a student at Oregon State University who will be graduating this year. He grew up near L.A. and had many opportunities to try diverse and new styles of cuisine. His family has both Chinese and Japanese roots, which is where his interest in Asian food culture comes from. As a child, his grandmother would cook many dishes for the holidays, and would be a great inspiration for Matthew’s love of cooking.

Lillian Linder is a senior at Oregon State University studying psychology. She is originally from a small town in Washington called Port Townsend. Her favorite meal growing up was the heart shaped waffles served with honey and cream at the Palace Hotel. Her father would take her there simply for the waffles and she still goes there today, when she has the chance to visit her hometown. She believes that food shows who you are and your roots and that’s what we are trying to convey in this issue. Enjoy!  

Rosie Morehead is currently a senior, finishing up her degree in Digital Communication Arts where she wants to be a journalist after college. She was born and raised in Sacramento, California, where she spends a lot of her time seeing family and drinking lots of energy drinks and coffee with her friends.

She hopes you enjoy her profile piece on Tried and True, and learn about the place she spent so much time at over her four years at OSU.

He is employed at the Orange Media Network as the Assistant Editor of Beaver’s Digest, and also just began work as a freelance writer.

After graduation, Noah plans on moving back to Bend, Oregon and spending some time pursuing his goals in writing.

Brianna O’Malley is a senior at Oregon State University studying English and Writing with the goal to enter Grad school. Brianna grew up in Bend, Oregon and spent most of her childhood experiencing the great outdoors by skiing, hiking, or camping. Her favorite part of living in the PNW is the access to the mountains or the beach in the same day. She hopes to travel the world someday, seeing all that it has to offer. When she isn’t reading or binging Netflix, she is outdoors with a backpack full of food and her dog.

Sarah Rogers is a senior at Oregon State with a major in English and minor in Writing. She grew up in Albany, OR, and can’t wait to move to a big city after she graduates this spring. If she could share a meal with anyone, it would be Audrey Hepburn. Her favorite food is strawberry shortcake, and she is known for boldly ordering just dessert at any restaurant she goes to. Surprisingly, she’s never had a cavity. Her favorite thing to do is watch old Hollywood movies with her cat, who is named after Greek Goddess of the spring, Persephone.

Niamh Sanders is a senior at Oregon State University majoring in English and minoring in Applied Journalism. She moved up and down the West coast throughout childhood and now resides in Corvallis. She loves to cook as much as she enjoys writing and hopes to pursue a career in food writing or public relations after graduation. Niamh works at a brewery in downtown Corvallis trying to learn more about the restaurant industry. In her spare time, she is nearly always found in her small apartment kitchen cooking or curled up with her nose in a book. Her most prized possessions are her cookbook collection.

Bailie Shultz is a sophomore at Oregon State University studying agricultural sciences with a minor in sustainability. She grew up in downtown Seattle but is a third-generation dairy enthusiast. Even though she has never lived on a farm, she has grown up around the industry and having cows herself housed at another dairy. Her food choices have been molded by her parents, always trying to choose local and sustainable food options. Also watching a lot of food network growing up shaped her love for food. 

Cassandra Waterman hails from the tropics of The Bahamas but has found a home in the Pacific Northwest. She is a junior in the Oregon State Agricultural Sciences program and intends to pursue a master’s degree in agricultural education.
