Board of Directors

Lisa Paulsen

Lisa Paulsen was born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah where she also met her husband Leif. They were married in 1992 and have three terrific children, which bring her great joy.
This organization is near and dear to her heart and she is thrilled to be a part of it. Lisa was diagnosed with a progressive degenerative disease called Friedreich’s Ataxia, and has been in a wheelchair since 1997. Lisa’s husband was killed in a motorcycle accident in 2004, and her children are having to do a lot of growing up. As a family, they make a conscious decision to live everyday to be happy and love each other.
Lisa’s hope and prayer is that Creating Possibilities for Kids will help her children as they grow and, in turn, they can help and serve others kids through this wonderful organization.
