In 2005, he and his college roommate Alexis Ohanian pitched their first start-up to then-new incubator [Y Combinator](/org/y-combinator). While the pair's initial idea for a food-ordering mobile app called My Mobile Menu was rejected, [Y Combinator](/org/y-combinator) founder Paul Graham invited them to build a new startup, which soon led to their creation of Reddit. After selling the company in 2006, Huffman launched Hipmunk and was named to [Inc.](/org/inc-com) Magazine's “30 Under 30” list in 2011 and the Forbes “30 Under 30” list in 2012. A few years later, Huffman returned as CEO of Reddit, where he has led the company's development of native image and video hosting, a new mobile app, and a full site redesign while growing the Reddit community to over 330 million monthly users. In addition to his work at Reddit, Huffman is a mentor at Hackbright Academy, a San Francisco-based coding school for women. In his free time, he enjoys skiing, dancing, and browsing r/WholesomeMemes.
