Kaleb Swartz

Creator & Continual Learner

Hello there! My name is Kaleb Swartz and I am a 24 year old Software Engineer from Loveland, Ohio.

Ever since I was young I have had a great interest in not only technology, but making a real difference in the world. Programming to me not only allows for the development of critical thinking and problem solving skills, but provides one the ability to create anything they can think of and distribute that creation to the entire world.
