The young Igor Ventorim , 25, has good reasons to close 2020 in a celebratory atmosphere. He came in 4th place in the general ranking of Brazil for the Behind the Code Marathon and, coincidentally, conquered the same position in the final challenge in Latin America. An excellent performance, which surprised him.

Igor did not consider the possibility of being among the Top 100 in Latin America. "At the beginning of the competition, my goal was only to enter a top 10 of any of the challenges, and I didn't even intend to go until the end of the competition," he says. But when the rankings started to be released, he was determined to go as far as he could. "Getting to the final was possible," he realized.

Igor's life is intertwined with the Federal University of Espírito Santo (UFES). Born in Serra, near Vitória, he has a degree in Computer Science and a master's student in Informatics. He also works as a civil servant in systems development, at the university itself.

The fact of studying and working required Igor a great personal and mental effort to perform well in the competition. Right from the start, one of the biggest obstacles was to reconcile the time to dedicate to the Marathon with his daily chores.

More than the organization, however, one of its greatest challenges was having to relearn how to manipulate technologies that it had not used in a long time, and still know new ones. "I am not a genius, anyone can be among the finalists in this competition. It is a matter of dedication and effort. This dedication is always important, much more than chance or luck ”.

Still with his student spirit, Igor says he learned a lot from the Behind the Code Marathon. The main lesson was to keep your feet on the ground and your head in the real world. "You need to analyze and understand the problems calmly, showing how it should be done in real life," he describes.
