ABOUT DUSTY MYSEN

Born on August 1, 1973, in Muskegon, Michigan, Dusty Mysen

grew up surrounded by his family and friends along the shores of

Lake Michigan. He graduated from Michigan State University in

1995 with a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering. Following

college, Dusty embarked on a fulfilling career spanning various

roles within the automotive industry. Dusty has always been deeply

rooted in family values. Together with his wife, Katie, they have

raised four wonderful children: Tristen, Landon, Parker, and Grady.

In September 2020, at the age of forty-seven, Dusty’s life took

an unexpected turn with a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. This pro-

found battle not only tested his resilience but also transformed him

into a better person. His memoir, a testament to his journey and

the challenges he faced, is his first literary endeavor, offering readers

an intimate glimpse into his fight against cancer and the lessons

learned along the way.
