Bio
Duane Albro
Keith has been a great C-Level partner, collaborating on the growth of Squan. He has deep industry knowledge and contacts and doesn't hesitate to provide support to our customers as well as coach and mentor our leadership team. I couldn't ask for a better partner in managing our business.
Ed Weissman
I met Keith in 2007 when WFI was preparing to partner with AT&T in the buildout of a microwave backhaul network to be supplied to AT&T Wireless (ater AT&T Mobility) by the AT&T Wireline group. Keith was the senior point man in conceptualizing the project, developing WFI's bid for the work, and interacting directly with AT&T at the highest level once the project had been awarded. Keith's knowledge of the telecommunications industry, from an infrastructure, policy and planning viewpoint, was extraordinary, as was his ability to work successfully with both highly compartmentalized structures and individuals to develop strategies, conceptualize them into concrete plans, and then develop the business format to implement them. Keith's intelligence, foresight and temperament make him a person who is easy to work with as well as an asset to every endeavor.
