Introduction
My name is Michael Mileos, and I'm and eXtreme kind of guy. My
favourite activities include skateboarding, rocking out on my
guitar, watching movies, clubbing with friends, moshing at concerts,
and of course - Developing Software. My taste in music ranges from
Hard Rock to Dance to Trance and then to R 'n B. I also like
to travel and have lived in New York, frequented Athens, and have
visited London, Canada, Japan, and most recently, The Kingdom of
Bahrain (in transit).

Education
In year 8, at Inaburra High School, I encountered my first very
first programming language - QBASIC. While I found it interesting,
it was not until year 10 that I began using Visual Basic and was
truly drawn into programming. I made many fun little programs,
ranging from Joke Applications to an Internet Chat Program with
basic encryption, and this was just for fun in my spare time. I also
enjoyed making homepages, and had designed a fan site for my
favorite music artist, at the time, Tupac Shakur. I took 3U
Computing Studies and graduated high school in 1998.
I then had an opportunity to complete higher education in New York,
and so.. I took it! While studying at the City University of New
York's College of Staten Island (
CSI
), I completed two degrees: An Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.)
in Computer Programming, and a Bachelor of Science in Computer
Science. I completed both of these degrees with honors, and as well
as being on the Dean's list, I also received scholarships for most
of my years (after becoming a New York resident). My studies at CSI
saw me spending most of my time in C++; however, we used some VB and
Java as well.

Future Aspirations
Who knows what the future brings? In the future I aspire to be
"Happy." Ideally I would like to be developing software at a higher
level, and making lots of money would be good too.
