Young Computer Prodigies

You may not have heard of 14-year-old Santiago Gonzalez, but you might have used one of the 15 iOS apps he created that are available in the App Store. The teenage software developer is currently enrolled in college and will earn a bachelor's degree by the time he is 16.

He's studying engineering at Colorado School of Mines, where he's a research assistant on a professor's energy efficiency project. But computers aren't his only interest — he's also a talented crocheter.

Santiago's ultimate goal? To earn a Ph.D. in computer science at Stanford and work at Apple. Learn more about Santiago's story from Prodigies, a series by THINKR TV.
