Stacey Dupree

As Partner at UPSTACK, Stacey will lend more than 30 years of telecom expertise to serve UPSTACK’s business clients. She is a seasoned infrastructure professional who is dedicated to providing full-service solutions to customers while continuously improving her team’s best practices and service standards.

Dupree began her telecom career working for Cable and Wireless, starting first in San Francisco before moving to Florida to take over as regional manager in a flagging region. In just two years, she led her group from last to first place. After time with Espire as Director of CLECs (competitive local exchange carriers), she returned home to California to serve as Vice President of Sales for PAETEC West (now Windstream).

Dupree has been trusted time and time again to turn things around for the companies she’s worked for. For example, she’s established satellite offices for large agencies, designed sophisticated connectivity and collaboration solutions, and increased the profitability of sales teams.

This entrepreneurial spirit and drive for success led her to form her own company, Meridian Network Services, in 2001. The full-service telecommunications agency conducts audits, negotiates contracts, manages implementations of network projects, and provides clients with exemplary service. For more than two decades clients have relied on Stacey and her team as an extension to their own IT departments.
