Ms. Campbell leads the strategy and execution of consumer and patient experience across more than 2,000 care sites spanning 17 states and Washington, D.C., encompassing hospitals, ambulatory sites, imaging centers, labs and virtual touchpoints across the continuum of care. Since joining Ascension in 2022, she has moved the organization from a traditional patient satisfaction framework to a comprehensive consumer engagement model that aligns experience, quality and operational performance, which has resulted in a net promoter score above 80, a 40% reduction in complaints and a 67% reduction in issue resolution times. She implemented enterprise real-time feedback infrastructure across more than 2,000 sites, empowering clinicians and associates with actionable data, clear standards and rapid service recovery capabilities.

At The Walt Disney Company, she developed and secured CEO approval for a multi-billion-dollar global experience strategy to revitalize an underperforming segment, aligning 11 business unit presidents behind a unified plan. Recognizing a gap in formal customer experience leadership pipelines, she partnered with Michigan State University to launch North America’s first master’s degree in customer experience management in 2022.
