Dave Leidholdt: Vice President of Sales
Dave Leidholdt is STL Communication’s Vice President of Sales and comes to the position with many years of industry experience.
Dave graduated from Southern Illinois University with degrees in Avionics and Advanced Technical Studies and began his work career with McDonnell Douglas Electronic Systems as a member of the Quality Engineering team.
After 3 years of employment with them, he took a leap of faith and accepted a position with a very new and small (at the time) STL Communications as their ninth employee. He initially was STL’s first office manager, then purchasing manager and later moved to a full-time sales position in 1993.
Dave decided to pursue other ventures in technology for several years outside STL including a stint with a data focused company and a managed services organization.
In 2015, Dave reunited with STL Communications; first as a senior salesperson and now as Vice President of Sales. His 27 years of industry experience provide him with the extensive knowledge and expertise required to lead STL’s sales team.
