Lou is driven to ensure ComTel’s solutions are as unique as our customers. He believes technology has no inherent value.  It is upon its application in support of organizational priorities and strategies that technology achieves value.  Lou also believes that ComTel’s communications solutions should enable business process improvement to deliver full benefit.  

From the founding of ComTel to the present, Lou insists on giving every ComTel customer outstanding service based upon:  
     • commitment,
     • quality,
     • innovation,
     • simplification 
     • and competence.  

Lou's personal interest and caring for each ComTel customer forms the basis for each ComTel employee to provide a degree of personalization and a quality of service unmatched in the telecommunications industry.  

Lou learned about leadership, team work and dedication while participating in organized athletics and as an officer in the US military. As a Service Disabled Veteran, Lou has successfully instilled his values of service to a higher cause, integrity and commitment within all of ComTel. His forty years experience in leadership and management have made ComTel a company proud of its past, confident in its competence and excited about its future.
