Alexis Xavier Rivas is the CEO of Cover, a company that is rethinking housing by applying technology to the whole process, from zoning to appliances. Alexis is a former architect, Forbes 30 under 30 and is taking on the housing crisis through Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). After working a top residential architecture firms and prefab companies, Alexis noticed a problem with how housing are conventionally built. He joined forces with Jemuel Joseph and together they completely rethought the process, from building a software tool to check the availability of your house, to customizing the interior of your space. Not only do the products come out well made and elegant, but have are much cheaper and environmentally friendly. Alexis brings a fresh eye to the housing crisis and has the potential to flip how our cities are built on its head.
