A 14-year-old child prodigy from the East Bay is about to graduate from Santa Clara University, and he already has a job lined up at SpaceX. The 14-year-old is said to have an IQ ranked in the top one-tenth percentile of the general population.
"At a very early age he was recognizing advanced mathematical models that I was very impressed with," Kairan's father said."I didn't have a point of reference, so I thought OK this is normal."
"As he was getting older, we realized that we were fully outmatched in trying to keep up then with the pace of his accleration and the pace of his processing skills," Kairan's dad said. "There’s this conventional belief that I'm missing out on some sort of noble vision of childhood, but I'm really here to tell people that's not true," Kairan said."Outside of academics, I have a fairly normal life."
