Elvina Beck Work Experience Details
  • Podshare
    Founder, Ceo
    Podshare Jan 2012 - Present
    1617 Cosmo Street Hollywood 90028
    Membership based live/work communitiesRecognizing the rise of the sharing and freelance economy, Elvina founded PodShare in 2012 for travelers and digital nomads to experience minimalist live/work communities across Los Angeles. Lean Startup: First 10 pods bootstrapped at Hollywood/Vine, three years spent on market research and aggregation of over 4,000 podestrians profiles.Crowdfunded: In 2015, PodShare funded 111% on Indiegogo to build its next location in DTLA of 18 pods. The new location is on the cover of Los Angeles Business Journal and Downtown News in June of 2016.Precedent: in 2016, PodShare set a precedent in the city of LA zoning code and successfully converted a marijuana dispensary into a 10 pod location - not to mention we did in 900 sq ft!Experimenting: in 2017, we expanded our network of locations that Podestrians can have access to with Venice!2018: PodShare broke up in rooms for the first time to offer dorm-style co-living next to UCLA.First to Market: Instead of one large building in a city, PodShare spreads "access spaces" across the city by public transportation and with access to bicycles with 12 and 24 hours rental passes, along with weekly and monthly discounts to those apartment hunting and/or interning/working temp jobs.Hardware: "Bunk beds are for kids, pods are for adults." PodShare is continually improving its "pod"​ desig to replace the ladder, rickety top bed and adding amenities and shelving. In terms of co-living, PodShare is testing where we can live, in what numbers, how to activate a neighborhood, and the sociology of human "collisions"Vertical: affordable housing, adaptive re-use of space, access not ownership, and the future of social networks with physical addresses. Press: TechCrunch said PodShare tapped into the zeitgeist of the sharing-economy, LA Weekly named the pods "Best Place to crash"​, Digital LA named Elvina "Top 50 Digital Women to watch"​, and LAist said pods are "the future of live/work."
