Who I am

Hello! My name is Brandon Saldan.

I'm a 17 year old student based in North Carolina.

I've had a deep interest in computers ever since I was very young. I started using the family computer in 2006 at the age of four, and I was gifted my own laptop in 2011 when I was nine. From there, my passion for computers took off.

Throughout elementary school, I was known as the kid who was really good with computers. My computer lab teacher picked up on this and allowed me to help students resolve any problems they were having with their computers. Eventually, I learned about iOS jailbreaking. I jailbroke my iPod Touch using p0sixspwn in 2013.

When I entered middle school, my school's tech department offered me an internship. I assisted in managing the school iPad's provisioning profiles, managing content filtering settings, installing and configuring software and hardware, and more.

In eighth grade, I jailbroke my iPhone 7. While this wasn't my first time jailbreaking an Apple product, it made me extremely curious as to how iOS jailbreaks actually worked. I decided to get more involved with the iOS jailbreaking community and began to learn about iOS internals, the parts to a jailbreak, and how they worked. While doing this, I met some really cool developers and designers and collaborated with them on a number of projects.

What am I up to now?

I am currently learning Swift and plan to release an app in the near future. I'm also working with Luminant Design and collaborating on a number of iOS themes and other projects.

What are my plans for the future?

I will be graduating from high school within the next two years. After high school, I plan to graduate college majoring in either Information Technology Management or Cyber Security. I am also aiming to recieve a scholarship from Apple to attend WWDC 2020.
