Pheo Para Alliance is proud to welcome Lacey Koelling to the Board of Directors. Read more about Lacey below and learn more about the Board of Directors here. Welcome to the “pheo para phamily” Lacey!
“My name is Lacey Koelling and my journey with PPA began in 2018 when I was diagnosed with bilateral carotid body tumors. At the time, I was introduced to the Paratroopers by my genetic counselor. From 2018-2023, I believed my lifetime of monitoring my paras was all this diagnosis would bring me. In 2023 when I received the news I was metastatic, the PPA became a refugee of information and support for me. Over the past year and a half, I have increased my involvement with other patients and researched ways to contribute to the education and research of pheo para through the PPA. This has led me to seek a greater, more involved role in supporting the community which led me to become a member of the board. I am interested in being an advocate for patients and research for treatment options.”
