CHICAGO, July 6, 2023 — SDI Presence LLC (SDI), a managed services provider (MSP) and certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) with Corporate Plus designation from the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC), welcomes Monica Lyons to the SDI team as a Senior Sales Executive.
With nearly two decades of industry experience, Lyons adds to SDI’s consultative approach to IT professional services.
