I realised I haven't actually introduced myself to anyone from the English-speaking community except for @Liue. I did have fun tanking a bunch of dungeons with @MoriMoonpaw a while ago, but I haven't said much about myself. I figure it is about as good time as any to make amends to that.

I am a bit of a nerdy engineer lass, currently doing Master's studies in artificial intelligence. I used to be a mythic raider in World of Warcraft, I achieved several Cutting Edge achievements in the past. Since last year I am dealing with health issues that forced me to play a lot more casually. Bit hard to get these big baddies down if you are high on drugs and the reflexes are not quite there. But such is life.

When I am in my top shape I definitely don't play games on easy mode. I am sort of a try-hard. Although sometimes it's nice to sit back and do something more relaxing and chill. One of my relaxing go-to games is Spyro Reignited. It has super cute graphics that are actually pretty great (just look at that terrific lighting! and it doesn't actually use any raytracing, the game runs decently well even on weaker computers). I also have way too many games on Steam that I should play one day.


I am a hardware nerd, in my social circles I was often the person to help figuring out parts for the budget. Unfortunately, that also means I get a lot of random questions that boil down to "💙💙💙💙 NO WORKY". It can be bit difficult without a crystal ball. However, often I DO manage to resolve issues eventually. My latest tech support "task" was replacing a HDMI cable that was zapping things and people, and causing the monitor to randomly not work - huh, I wonder why, with the shorting.

Outside of techy stuff I sometimes draw, paint or take pictures. I also have some LEGO sets at my flat and plan on getting some more in the future - when the money allows. Fancier kits are expensive. But they can be so much fun to build! I am also a deaf/hard of hearing advocate and I moderate a Discord server for cochlear implant users. I find it very important for people to make the world accessible rather than just fit one cookie-cutter size.

Hello Saka!

I could add into Saka's introduction that it was my pleasure to get to know her first time on Assembly Summer 2022 event held in Helsinki, Finland. She's just a lovely person and I am very, very happy that she did a visit into our booth, as chatting and playing with her has been wonderful.

We share same geek/nerd culture, as both of us are pretty heavy World of Warcraft gamers (and interested about IT, coding, computers, games in general etc.) and both of us are also University students, except that I have recently started Bachelor's degree, while she's already finishing her Master's degree as she told above - but look at her major, Artificial Intelligence. That is superb.

So, all thanks goes to Lenovo Legion Team, especially @MoriMoonpaw. You made it possible to meet her.
