Immediate Past President
Jacqueline J. Spiegel, MS, PA-C, DFAAPA, CHSE
Peoria, AZ
“When I realized people in communities locally, nationally, and globally were in desperate need of the PA Foundation’s support and services, it could not have been easier to pick up the phone and ask how I can get involved. I serve the Foundation because I believe in what it stands for and the far reaching impact it has. As I met other volunteers and become more passionate about the organization’s mission, I decided to volunteer in even more ways and ultimately to serve on the board of trustees. And now, as president, I follow in the footsteps of many talented and passionate leaders before me, who have made the PA Foundation what it is today. I am blessed with the opportunity to serve this amazing organization.”
