His mom bought a Dell laptop, which included a pinball video game Oliver liked to play.
"Probably age 4 or 5," Oliver said. "My mom, she didn't keep electronics from me. They used to always let me have electronics when I was younger, all the time. I remember that having a great impact in my life."
Oliver quickly found out he had computer skills.
"I could always get on and figure it right out," Oliver said. "Once I saw somebody do it, I knew how to do it.
