Who We Are

Our Story

In 2023, Joe Belgrad, our President and Founder, transferred to Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine to pursue his veterinary studies where he met Eugene Dias, his landlord at the time. Joe was impressed by Eugene's apartment complex and hospitality. They began having conversations about the possibility of building an apartment complex dedicated specifically for veterinary students, and they formed an amazing partnership.
