Lawrence resident earns Verizon honor

Verizon Wireless has appointed Daric Schroeder, Lawrence, to the company’s President’s Cabinet.

Schroeder, a business sales representative at the Verizon Wireless regional office in Overland Park, earned the spot by demonstrating exceptional sales leadership in 2007 by providing business customers in the Kansas City area with outstanding service related to company products and service plans, the company said.

He qualified by meeting several criteria, including being ranked in the top 1 percent in 2007 sales among the company’s more than 18,000 salespeople.

“Daric works diligently to understand and exceed our customers’ needs and expectations,” said Lou Sigillo, president for Verizon’s Kansas/Missouri Region.
