Aris has worked with computers since 1989; building, tweaking, overclocking, optimizing, networking, testing, and helping end-users. In the late '90s, he assisted running fiber optic cables and successfully networked the Exeter Area High School, then went to study computer sciences at the University of New Hampshire Durham campus. He likes to stay up to date with computing trends, modern hardware, and artificial intelligence through online courses and discovery.
