Bay Area native Kairan Quazi is an exceptional 14-year-old — next week he will become the youngest graduate in the history of Santa Clara University.
SANTA CLARA, California — He can't drive or see an R-rated movie, but Quazi landed his first job as a software engineer for SpaceX which he'll be starting next month."During third grade, it became very obvious to my teachers, my parents, and my pediatrician that mainstream education wasn't the right path for my accelerated learning ability," Quazi said.
At one point at Las Positas, Quazi was a stem tutor and became one of the most requested tutors on the staff."I went from being a third grade mutineer to really feeling validated intellectually," Quazi said. On Tuesday, Santa Clara City Council congratulated Quazi for his past achievements and his future ones.
