#ASPHO2025 Keynote Speaker: Hayley Arceneaux
A pediatric cancer survivor and now physician assistant working with patients who have pediatric leukemia and lymphoma, Hayley Arceneaux was thrilled to serve as the medical officer on Inspiration4, the first all-civilian space mission to orbit the earth in September 2021. With insightful and often humorous anecdotes from her historic journey, Hayley shares how stepping outside your comfort zone can lead to extraordinary personal and professional growth. Whether video calling patients from space to “show what their future could look like, whether they want to be astronauts or whatever big dream they want to come true,” or telling her story of hope and resilience to audiences, Hayley will leave you inspired to boldly embrace opportunity when it comes your way. Don’t miss this inspiring keynote event on May 8 at #ASPHO2025 in Louisville!
