My name is Kevin G. Summers; I’m the new editor of Submarine Telecoms Forum. I want to take a minute to introduce myself and give you a hint about all the exciting things we have planned for SubTel Forum. SubTel Forum has been a part of my life for close to 5 years now. I’ve been working behind the scenes as a graphic designer, taking over layout of the magazine after Ted Breeze, the original layout artist, passed away in 2004.
