Donovan is a 27-year-old real estate developer and also Director of Investor Relations at Upright. He is originally from St. Paul, MN, and graduated with a petroleum engineering degree in 2019. After moving to Houston, TX, for a job in the oil industry, he got his start in real estate with a house hack of a duplex during the middle of the pandemic.
Noticing a lack of duplex inventory throughout the city, Donovan decided to raise outside capital and develop them himself.
