Faison Gowdy, Mary Claire Parrish and Jon Wright have a few things in common.

All three are on the C Spire team and known to be dedicated, high-achievers in their areas of expertise — Faison in IT, Mary Claire in HR and Jon in PR and marketing. All three are native Mississippians, having earned their degrees in the state, as well.

And, as the Covid-19 pandemic hit in March, all three were given chances to grow or advance their careers within C Spire. “I didn’t expect this opportunity right now,” said Jon. “I’m very thankful.”

Wireless carriers are always quick to offer a deal. Hey, we’re one of them. There’s no shame in kickin’ the tires and finding the best wireless arrangement for you and your family.
