meet our team of leaders, trendsetters, and mentors

Our executive leaders help make the MetroStar magic happen. From tenured leaders to new faces, our leadership team collectively shares the same dreams and vision for a better future that our co-founders Ali Reza Manouchehri and Robert J. Santos founded the company on more than two decades ago. Together, our executive team enhances and adapts our organization to better ourselves and our community.
