Wecom Fiber has named Kevin Stamey as its new Chief Operating Officer, effective immediately. In this capacity, Stamey will oversee design and engineering, construction delivery, and execution of the BEAD program as the company expands what is among the largest broadband construction initiatives in Arizona.
Stamey brings extensive experience in building and growing fiber networks over many years. Most recently serving as Vice President of West Coast Operations at Astound, he managed construction, engineering, and field operations during a phase of rapid expansion and was instrumental in planning and securing major BEAD allocations along with other large grant-funded projects. That background directly matches the challenges ahead at Wecom Fiber.
Wecom Fiber is pursuing an aggressive rollout across an eight-county region in northern and western Arizona, financed through a mix of private investment and grant programs. The firm is deploying substantial private capital to build fiber in competitive markets such as Flagstaff, Prescott, Prescott Valley, and Cottonwood, while its grant-backed initiative—supported by nearly $196 million in BEAD funding, the largest award of its kind in the state—will bring high-speed fiber to roughly 66,000 homes and businesses in underserved and rural areas. With construction already active in additional markets across its eight-county footprint, the company anticipates connecting more communities in the coming months. As COO, Stamey will lead the operational team responsible for turning that blueprint into fiber laid in the ground and customers brought online.
"Kevin is a proven operator who knows how to build fiber networks at scale and on standard," said Rachel Solomon, Chief Executive Officer of Wecom Fiber. "As we accelerate one of the largest broadband buildouts in Arizona, his leadership across construction, engineering, and field operations will be central to delivering for the communities we serve."
"Wecom Fiber is taking on one of the most important broadband builds in the state, and doing it with a genuine commitment to the communities it serves," said Stamey. "I am excited to join the team and help deliver reliable, high-speed fiber to the homes and businesses that need it most."
