About Me
Hey, I'm Caden Wieties — a computer science student at the University of Arkansas. I build software that feels personal and useful, whether it's a climbing tracker or a personal website like this one.
Outside of coding, I'm into rock climbing, music, and exploring the creative intersections between tech and life. Oh yeah, and I am pursuing a minor in mathematics — I love math!
