I have been in the Telecommunications industry for forty years working for companies such as MCI, Cable and Wireless, AT&T, Bell South, Qwest, and CenturyLink. I started in the mail room for MCI, and became a Lead Technician over Installation and Maintenance, then a Technical Service Manager for the Sales Organization. At Cable and Wireless, I was responsible for designing customer networks. At BellSouth, AT&T, Qwest and CentruryLink I became one of the most successful Account Managers for each company. I attributes my success to always placing the customer needs ahead of the company and even my own.
