Eco Smart Home Pros was officially founded in 2013 but has its roots in Steven Donley’s childhood, when he first found his love of technology and programming. As a teen he could be found making improvements to the management software for his father’s dental practice, and from there he helped teach his 8th grade programming class and writing several of his own programs. After managing a successful computer business in the ‘90s he went back to college. In 2013 he founded Donley Computer Services to use his experience and knowledge about the dental field to ensure that his clients’ practices were secure and complying with HIPAA regulations. Despite the success of this venture, Steven still felt called to get back into programming and design work, and he started to shift the business to home automation. Over the 2019-2020 year he worked on 6 figure projects, while having no employees, and realized it was time to find some help. Fortunately for him, his son Steven had recently graduated with his MBA from NMU and was seeking new opportunities to put his business acumen to use. It was in this partnership that Eco Smart Home Pros was founded.
Though the business is headquartered in Muskegon, MI, the business has strong ties to the Upper Peninsula, with two employees being native Yoopers and three out of the four employees being students or alumni of Northern Michigan University. Eco Smart Home Pros has a satellite office in Marquette, MI and is dedicated to bringing its principles of happier and more eco-friendly homes and workspaces to the U.P.

William is just happy to be here. A Gwinn native, he’s enjoyed working with technology since he was 7, voraciously taking things apart to see how they worked, and then determinedly putting them back together again. Not surprisingly his tech skills have advanced since the age of 7, and he’s putting them to good use as ESHP’s newest technician, assisting our lead technician with installation and programming. His hobbies include spending time with his 2 kids, playing in DnD campaigns, and reading Star Wars books.
