Software developer & robotics competitor

Walter
Gaalswyk.

I build web apps, AI tools, and hardware projects. Studying computer science in Minnesota.

I started coding in 2021 with Unity and C#, then made Lost Slime on my own at 12.

I built, programmed, and drove a VEX robot that made it to Worlds. Now I study computer science full-time through PSEO while finishing high school.

Outside of school: gaming, Roblox projects, and Linux tinkering.
