Written by Johnnie Wade | 10/30/2024

MetroStar is proud to announce that Emilie Scantlebury, Director of Growth Operations, has been recognized with the 2024 ACT-IAC Rookie of the Year award. Presented by the American Council for Technology and Industry Advisory Council (ACT-IAC), this award honors emerging leaders who demonstrate exceptional innovation and commitment to advancing federal IT modernization.

Since joining MetroStar, Scantlebury has shown a relentless focus on collaboration, leveraging her role to bridge the gap between public and private sectors. Her work with ACT-IAC has underscored her commitment to transformative technology, as she led the planning for this year’s innovation track. Emilie curated and organized panels that included "Unlock Innovation: Low Code Solutions for Mission Enablement," "Driving Sustainability: Connected Technologies for Smart Infrastructure," and "Making AI Real: A Year in Review and What’s Ahead," showcasing her dedication to fostering meaningful conversations in tech.

“This award cements your commitment to MetroStar and the ACT-IAC community,” said Pete Nelson, MetroStar's Chief Growth Officer. “We appreciate your work with ACT-IAC while simultaneously driving progress and success here at MetroStar."

Scantlebury’s recognition from ACT-IAC not only highlights her achievements in government technology but also aligns with MetroStar’s mission to support innovative, secure solutions across federal programs.

MetroStar is also pleased to share that this recognition follows Ashley Brush’s 2023 ACT-IAC Rookie of the Year win. Ashley, SVP of Operational Excellence, moderated two impactful panels last year, "Death by Stagnation, Haunted by Evolution" and "Future Tech University," solidifying her role as a thought leader in technology modernization.

Together, the achievements of Emilie Scantlebury and Ashley Brush reflect MetroStar’s ongoing commitment to supporting visionary leaders who drive progress, inspire innovation, and reinforce our reputation as a leader in government technology solutions.
