I am NOT currently seeking employment. Please do not send me emails regarding job opportunities at this time.
I am one of the founders of RentHop, a better alternative to Craigslist for apartment rentals. Currently, the site only has listings for New York City apartments, but we plan to expand to other cities soon.
A related apartment hunting blog pertaining to the site can be found at:
Previously I worked at D.E. Shaw & Co. and had a wonderful time there. I would be glad to share my positive experiences with any quants or software developers who want to hear more about the culture and job. If I ever decide to be an employee again instead of an entrepreneur, DESCO would be the first employer I call.
