Eli Harvey

Eli is a resident of the Seward neighborhood in South Minneapolis. A transplant from suburban Iowa, he quickly fell in love with the freedom that biking and walking in Minneapolis provided. He also began to notice where the city fell short for people moving outside of cars. Now a year-round bike commuter in rain, snow, or shine, Eli hopes to help make the Twin Cities a safer and more accessible place for everyone.

Professionally, Eli works as a research technician in vaccine development. Outside of the lab, he enjoys oil painting, gardening, and playing with his cat Simon.
