I sit down with Malvina Kefalas, who I first met at the Get Your Rear in Gear New York 5k, and whose mother passed away of colon cancer. Actually I was lying down as I had a bad cold and I sounded. like I was growling. Malvina opens up about how she turned her grief into a mission to make a difference in this space. Malvina talks about how she inherited a CHEK2 mutation as well as a APC VUS from her mother, and is now routinely screened and can be proactive in her care. Malvina has recently changed marketing roles and now works for CancerIQ a digital risk assessment for providers. It's true that some of the best interviews take place after coming out of anesthesia.
