Early life and education

Hiban and his four siblings grew up in Howard County, Maryland. [16] His mother, Ann, [17] was a schoolteacher. [18] In his own words, Hiban came from "fairly humble beginnings." [19] He didn't begin speaking until the age of 5, and was diagnosed with a learning disability as a child. [20] Hiban's parents divorced when he was 12. [18] According to Hiban, as a child he ostensibly didn't possess any "special talents" or "strong interest in doing anything particular." [18] Hiban graduated from Wilde Lake High School in 1983. [16] In 1987, he earned his sociology degree from Frostburg State University, graduating with a GPA of 2.6. [20]

In the summer before his senior year of college, Hiban first had a "realization that [he] had a skill" when he got a new job distributing coupons for a timeshare company in Ocean City, Maryland. [21] In his first day on the job, Hiban made more money in commissions than he typically made in an entire week at his previous job, where he worked as a meat slicer at a local deli. [21] Hiban views this experience as a defining moment that put him on a path toward entrepreneurship. [21]
