Ohanian's mother was an immigrant from Germany.

2001

He went to Howard High School in Ellicott City, Maryland, where he gave the student address for his graduating class in 2001.

Ohanian says his obsession with technology started in middle school when he got a 33.6k dialup modem.

He spent time on message boards learning how to code and build websites.

Eventually, he began to make websites for nonprofit organizations for free, by "trick[ing]" them, hiding behind his email to disguise the fact that he was a teen doing this from his parents' basement.

2005

After graduating from the University of Virginia in 2005 with degrees in commerce and history, Ohanian and his friend Steve Huffman pitched the idea MyMobileMenu to Y Combinator.

The company passed on the idea but encouraged the duo to come up with another idea it could potentially fund.

They later came up with reddit.com with the goal of it becoming the "front page of the Internet".

Reddit joined Y-Combinator's first batch of start-ups in the summer of 2005 and was later acquired by Condé Nast in 2006 for an undisclosed amount between $10 million and $20 million.

Ohanian continued to work closely with Reddit as a member of its board of directors.
