About

I’m Mario Salazar Goin, a student founder and software builder at UC Davis. I build products that turn everyday problems into simple, useful software. My work spans productivity tools, browser extensions, and technology infrastructure. I’m currently building Cadence, a university scheduling assistant, alongside projects like XCompress and LumaViox. I’m especially interested in the intersection of software, entrepreneurship, and systems that make complex workflows dramatically simpler. I like building, shipping, and learning by putting real products in the hands of real users.

Cadence - The smarter way to schedule college.

Cadence reimagines university scheduling around the student. Instead of manually comparing course sections, times, and conflicts, students enter the classes they need and their preferences, and Cadence helps generate schedules that fit their week. Its focus goes beyond avoiding conflicts: it helps students balance class times, gaps, workload, and personal preferences to find a schedule that works for their life.
