Thomas Suarez: 6th Grader iPhone App Developer

How cool is it to design apps for the iphone? As cool as Thomas Suarez, a 6th grader who does exactly that.

Thomas Suarez is in the 6th grade at a middle school in the South Bay. And while most of his peers are probably playing playstation games or watching the Disney channel, he’s creating iOS apps and giving TED Talks. Suarez has been fascinated by computers and technology since before kindergarten. He’s established his own company, CarrotCorp and has made two iOS apps that are currently in the App Store: Earth Fortune, which displays different colors of Earth depending on what your fortune is and his most successful- Bustin Jieber, a Whac-a-Mole for Justin Bieber.


Suarez, inspired by Steve Jobs, started an App Club at school where any student can come to learn to design an app. In the future, Suarez wants to create more apps, more games and get into Android programming and development. He plans on continuing his app club and find other ways for students to share knowledge with others. We are into a bright future, way to go Thomas.
