Meet Bobby Paisley, the New Executive Director of BIAK

Can you tell us about your personal experience with brain injury and how that inspired you to become the Executive Director of the Brain Injury Alliance of Kentucky?. My name is Bobby Paisley and I’m the new Executive Director of the Brain Injury Alliance of Kentucky. A personal experience drew me to apply for the position at the BIAK. I have a good friend, Justin, who was diagnosed with terminal cancer almost two years ago, and he recently passed away. During his battle with cancer, he had 3 major brain surgeries and full brain radiation. We walked through this journey together and I saw firsthand the struggles that result from injury to the brain. He experienced balance issues, impaired vision, loss of cognitive ability, among other things. He benefited from services at BIAK that allowed him to navigate his difficult journey. I fell in love with the mission and the rest is history. I couldn’t be happier to serve those affected by brain injury and their families.
