Summary
David Stoll is a telecommunications executive and licensed Professional Engineer with 17 years of hands-on RF and network operations experience, now serving as CEO of MEI Telecom Services and Barry County Telephone Co. He rose through technical RF roles at major carriers (Sprint, T-Mobile, AT&T, Cingular, US Cellular) designing and optimizing GSM/PCS networks and routinely interfacing with regulators, zoning boards and legal teams for site acquisition. David combines deep radio planning and drive-test expertise with executive leadership and finance training (MBA and a Masters of Finance), giving him uncommon fluency across engineering, regulatory compliance, and business strategy. Notably, he has maintained operational control of rural and regional networks—handling FCC/FAA filings, microwave coordination, and capacity planning—rather than moving purely into corporate management. Based in Plainwell, Michigan, he brings a practical, field-tested perspective to running a regional carrier and engineering teams. His GitHub handle (@meitelecom) signals ongoing technical identity despite a CEO role.
