Jon Frank has extensive experience in real estate, education, and international entrepreneurship. He is a natural, talented leader focused on driving teams to success. While at Brown, Jon gravitated quickly to real estate – or as he puts it, “building things.” Early in his career, he learned the art of financial engineering at ING Clarion in New York City. He next ventured into the world of affordable housing in Cincinnati, managing new investments and developments, leading project teams, and doing some good for the world along the way.Jon’s next stop was at Harvard to receive his MBA. Turning down offers to attend Stanford, Kellogg, and other elite programs, Jon dove headlong into HBS’s courses, extra-curriculars, and developing an unusual (and questionable) obsession with the film Multiplicity. HBS also provided Jon with the opportunity to conduct a full orchestra, directing an original musical production with a budget of $80,000. HBS also positioned Jon for his next job at Trammell Crow Residential, the country’s premier multifamily real estate firm. His next stop in the real estate field was as Vice President of Real Estate with Village Green, one of the leading real estate developers in the Midwest.After spending four years in China, building (and ultimately selling) an entrepreneurial venture, Jon is now leading Imagine Homes as its CEO, as the company executes its aggressive growth strategy across the Midwest. Under Jon's leadership, the company has grown from approximately 120 homes to over 1,200 in under three years.
