A side project turned into a Mission 🚀.
Born from the shared struggles of three university students - Kevin, Jean Bruce, and Kwasi, Elev started as a side project but quickly turned into a mission.
We didn't just empathize with the difficulty of finding suitable student housing - we lived it. Our passion for bringing a solution stemmed from this personal experience, understanding that solving this problem for others meant resolving it for ourselves too.
Our Mission
We want to give students everywhere the best, worry-free 🧘♂️ living experience, so they can focus on their education 📚.
Say hi to the Crew! 👋
Head Idea Guy
Kevin Mpunga
Kevin's first pad had a mouse infestation, was rumored to be haunted and earned the nickname 'the Traphouse' for all the wrong reasons.
Master of Making Things Happen
Jean Bruce Koua
Jean Bruce's first 'student home' in Canada was a budget hotel room. He landed with a dream, a suitcase, and no idea where he was going to live.
Code Whisperer
Kwasi Boateng
Kwasi once lived in a place where the hot water would disappear quicker than a magician's assistant. Showering was like participating in a polar bear plunge every day!
Meme Lord
Maurine Njunge
Back in her student years, she once got duped into a cheap 'luxury' penthouse scam. She sent the deposit, packed her bags, only to learn that the penthouse was as real as unicorns.
