About me
Hello, my name is Jerad Kozey. I've lived in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada for the majority of my life and attended the University of Regina for my undergrad. For my graduate studies, I looked abroad and attended the University of Southern Queensland in Australia. I am currently enrolled in their PhD program studying Indigenous Education and online learning. After my studies, I've played many roles. I've been a teaching assistant, curriculum developer, and a sessional instructor specializing in Indigenous health studies at the First Nations University of Canada. During this time, I utilized my deep love and a strong desire to see Indigenous peoples succeed to be successful myself. It is these powerful feelings that now help me succeed in my new role as one of Colorado's Department of Public Health and Environment as a Tribal Health Data Specialist. In this position, my colleagues and myself try to build better data relationships by affirming Tribal sovereignty and Tribal data sovereignty.
