An ICON because...

When Max Park was diagnosed with autism at the age of two, his parents were told he would need assistance for the rest of his life.

But now, 20 years later, thanks to a childhood hobby that allowed him to improve his social and fine motor skills, Max has proved this wrong as one of the world’s greatest speed-cubers.

His remarkable talent shone through when he emerged victorious at his second cubing competition, outperforming two college graduates at just 10 years of age.

As of 3 July 2024, Max holds 12 world records, including most wins of the WCA World Championship (two, shared with Feliks Zemdegs) and the prestigious fastest time to solve a 3x3x3 rotating puzzle cube (3.13 seconds).
