Aaron Zhang, Software Catalyst
Aaron Zhang has graduated from Redmond High School. He is a proud member of Exothermic Robotics, a club that participates in the VEX Robotics Competition. On his robotics team, he programs the robot so that it can operate autonomously without the need of a driver. Aaron was first introduced to programming by his parents, who are both software engineers, but his interest in programming was particularly piqued when he took AP Computer Science at school. His incredibly experienced teacher, as well as the class' in-depth exploration of the possibilities of computer science truly amazed him and encouraged him to pursue programming on his own. Furthermore, wanting to expand his existing knowledge, Aaron took CSE 143: Computer Programming II at the University of Washington, in which he gained a more extensive understanding of computer science concepts.
