Autorenporträt

W.R. Kozey was born in Saskatchewan, Canada, but has spent most of his adult life on the move. In 2017, W.R. met his wife abroad, and they spent the first four years of their relationship in transit. Every winter they'd find a new place to live: Mexico, Peru, Thailand, India, but Juneau would always home.W.R. and his wife would come back to Alaska's capital in the summer time to work seasonally while the cruise ships were in port. However, during the pandemic, they made Juneau their permanent home, purchasing their house in the shadows of the Mendenhall Glacier.Since the two settled down, W.R. has gone back to school, graduating with his Master's degree and pursuing a PhD. During his studies, W.R. taught in a variety of disciplines including public health, history, and English composition. He enjoys all the courses he's taught, English composition being his favorite, but he would like to eventually transition to Creative Writing.Besides teaching, W.R. has moonlit as a curriculum developer, platform development specialist, and data liaison for research institutions as well as the state. But, if you ask him, his favorite side gig is bartending. It was bartending that helped him travel the world; helped him learn the craft of story telling; and the source of his inspiration for his first book: Tall Tales of Alaska: The Red Dog Saloon.
