TEXT: MEET A 14 YEAR OLD PRODIGY PROGRAMMER
January 29, 2013 by Shocklee

This is Santiago Gonzalez, a 14-year old

programmer in Littleton, Colorado, U.S. He is
fluent in lots of programming languages and
creates apps for big companies. He likes to
watch series online and to create memes for the
internet. He also loves to play computer games,
but he prefers to play with real friends of his
neighborhood.
When Im not creating apps, I am a normal guy says Santiago. I always go to school in the
morning with my parents. Then, I go home by bus. Sometimes, I go to the movies with my best
friend, Diego. But because of my job, I rarely play outside with the boys at night.
Santiago studies computer science at college and his big dream is to travel around the world. I
never travel abroad alone because of my age.
