“I am pleased to announce that Gary Crocco has joined Lumos Networks as a Sales Director in our Richmond, Virginia market,” said Timothy G. Biltz, President and CEO of Lumos Networks.  “Gary brings a wealth of experience and relationships in the robust Richmond Enterprise market, which in June of 2016, had an estimated $125 million in annual fiber data Enterprise spending within one mile of our dense, fully redundant 450 mile fiber network in Richmond.”
