RentHoop

RentHoop is a mobile app for finding roommates, rooms and sublets.

It's been a tremendous experience founding RentHoop. On very little funds (but a lot of passion), our company has accomplished a lot including building apps for both iOS and Android phones, national and regional press recognition, acceptance into StartUp Boost LA and over 60,000 users through organic marketing. 

Our team has decided to relegate RentHoop to a side project as we were unable to find a sustainable business model.

As a kid I wanted to be five things.

- sports agent
- journalist
- lawyer
- teacher
- entrepreneur

I thought I had to choose one but now I am sort of all five at once and it’s pretty cool.
