Aron John Salen

Computer Science Student & Aspiring Creator

My journey started with the smell of thermal paste and the sound of spinning fans. Growing up watching my father sell PCs, I developed a natural affinity for hardware, eventually winning 2nd place in a high school PC assembly competition.

However, the "turning point" wasn't a faster CPU it was an Arduino robot. After building an award-winning robotics project for my senior high thesis, I realized that I didn't just want to build the machine; I wanted to build the worlds that live inside it.

Choosing Computer Science was a conscious decision to master the logic and algorithms behind the screen. Whether I'm optimizing code for STRASHER or managing my personal life using a Work Breakdown Structure, I believe that structure gives you freedom.
