Hi there! I'm Liga, 18, from the United States. ๐บ๐ธ
I've been on an incredible programming journey for almost 9 years now. Over the years, I've dabbled in various aspects of software development, but recently, I've found my true passion in low-level development. ๐ ๏ธ
- โจ 4 on AP Computer Science A exam
- ๐ฅ Gold medalist in TSA Oregon 2025
- ๐ฅ Silver medalist in George Fox D1 programming competition of 2025
- ๐ฅ Bronze medalist in SkillsUSA Oregon 2024
- ๐บ๐ธ Nationalist nominee for SkillsUSA 2024
- ๐ Top 5 team for George Fox D1 programming competition of 2024
My programming adventure began with high-level languages, where I explored the vast landscapes of web development, app creation, and even some game development. These experiences laid a solid foundation for my skills and ignited my curiosity to dive deeper into the world of low-level / embedded programming. ๐๐ฑ๐ฎ
In the past few years, I've shifted my focus towards low-level development. This area fascinates me because it allows me to work closer to the hardware, optimize performance, and understand the inner workings of computer systems. It's like peeling back the layers of an onion to reveal the core. ๐ง ๐ง
