Welcome

Hello, I’m Jondell Stephens, a dynamic healthcare executive, strategic operator, and dedicated family man.

A proud Birmingham, AL native, I’m a devoted husband to Rachel and father to two incredible daughters who inspire me every day. My family is my foundation, and I treasure the adventures we share—whether traveling, overlanding, hiking, kayaking, or cheering passionately from the sidelines as a dedicated soccer dad. Life’s greatest moments are the ones spent with those I love most.

Professionally, I am an experienced Market COO and Senior Market Performance Leader, driving operational excellence and strategic growth in healthcare. With over 20 years of leadership experience, I specialize in transforming complex healthcare systems, leading large-scale teams, and managing multi-million-dollar budgets exceeding $80M. I have a proven track record of bridging strategy and execution—optimizing market operations, streamlining clinical workflows, and ensuring high-quality, value-based care for thousands of patients. My role extends beyond performance management; I drive end-to-end business operations, financial oversight, and change management initiatives that position healthcare organizations for long-term success.

Additionally, I am privileged to shape the next generation of leaders as an Adjunct Professor of Operations Management at Troy University, where I combine real-world expertise with academic insight to educate, inspire, and mentor rising professionals in business and healthcare operations.
