Our Remarkable Leadership Team Sets the Standard for Excellence!

As MorningStar of Santa Fe gets ready for our Grand Opening later this year, we would like to introduce our exceptional leadership team. Since we believe that the tone of our community comes from the top down, we could not be any prouder to have on board two very special individuals who will set the bar for extraordinary and be examples for the rest of our team members. 

We are an organization founded on the core values of: Love, Respect, Honesty, Fairness, Goodness, and Kindness; and have a leadership team that embodies them. As Executive Director, Bill Bouvier’s childhood was influenced by his grandma, an Italian immigrant who worked hard to assimilate into her new American culture. She taught Bill the importance of good table manners, good grammar and to look your best at every occasion. Bill cherishes the many lessons he has learned from seniors including taking time to enjoy life and feels it is his calling to serve them. In his role as Executive Director, Bill will advocate for our residents’ needs. 

Leslie Castaneda will serve as MorningStar of Santa Fe’s Director of Community Relations. She has lots of experience working with seniors and recalls that her grandmother “Minnie” was the first senior she ever loved. Leslie credits Minnie with shaping her into the woman she is today by giving her unconditional love that allowed individuality. Minnie always urged Leslie to chase her dreams and she feels like she has done that by working for a company whose “overall mission, values and integrity aligns with my own, especially when working with our seniors.”
