In his previous role as FiberLight’s Chief Operating Officer, Paul oversaw the day-to-day operations of FiberLight’s Sales, Operations and Finance Departments and played a key role in securing a number of key wins for the company.  These include establishing numerous critical partnerships with data centers in the mid-Atlantic region and continuing the company’s Texas expansion activities – one of the industry’s largest construction projects.  As CEO, Paul will be responsible for setting and overseeing FiberLight’s company strategy and cultural vision, growing the company’s revenues by improving overall service delivery, successfully completing its Texas expansion activities and introducing new transport products.
