My two top priorities were to improve service availability and performance while simultaneously reducing cost-of-goods-sold. Both of these objectives had significant implications for the architecture of our global IP network. Steve immediately assumed ownership of this initiative, leading the design, planning, and execution phases of our transition from a fragmented, provider-managed network platform to an integrated self-managed Internet presence -- all without inflicting downtime on our customers.”

Steve was a major loss to SpinVox's operational team.”
