  Carl is currently the President of Metro 24 Wholesale, inc. He presides over all company activity. Carl began his career in the auto parts business back in 1997 at the young age of 13. His start in the industry came with humble beginnings doing tire installations at a junkyard on the weekends. This led to his passion and desire to learn all that he could about the business. The next 8 years of his career were spent managing several very successful retail tire stores, with an additional 4 years in the wholesale tire industry overseeing a multi-state sales program for a large distributor. 

He learned about TPMS sensors as an installer the old-fashioned way; by doing tire installations, rotations, etc. back in 2004 while working in retail. This was ahead of the federal government's mandate for TPMS to be installed in every automotive vehicle on US roadways. His education in the TPMS business continued for several more years, having attended TIA workshops and becoming TIA certified in 2012. Based on his training, expertise, and driven attitude, he was selected for the elite TPMS testing program with General Motors at their Milford, MI proving grounds. Inside the program, he worked side by side with GM's world-class automotive engineering team to gain a deep and broad understanding of TPMS technology and the critical role it plays in automotive industry safety.

He continues to play an instrumental role in the continued advancement of TPMS technology and safety issues for which it addresses automotive vehicles on the roadways today.

“Millions of Americans have fought and died on battlegrounds both here and abroad to defend our freedoms and way of life. Today our troops continue to make the ultimate sacrifices, and even as we lose troops, more Americans continue to step forward to say, I’m ready to serve. They follow in the footsteps of generations of fine Americans.”  - Michel de Montaigne

Eric himself is one of these fine Americans serving two tours in Iraq during his service in the Army.
