“I’m really excited about the chance to start a new challenge and join the Momentum family for three reasons — the people, the platform and the vision,” Piazza said. “I’m eager to help build upon the company’s already solid foundation as a well-respected telecommunications provider with the highest levels of customer satisfaction. Stay tuned because great things are definitely soon to come.”
