Jacob will report to Sam Huenergardt, president/CEO for the Mid-America Region of AdventHealth.
"We are thrilled to have Sissel join our Mid-America team and lead an exciting new campus that will meet a variety of needs for our western Johnson County residents,” Huenergardt said. “The Lenexa City project is an innovative initiative that will benefit from her dynamic and collaborative leadership.”
