I was born on the 22nd of July in 1975 in Zhovti Vody, Ukraine.
By 1997 I had a specialist degree (in Ukraine it means bachelors degree plus 1 year of additional education) in Economic cybernetics with qualification economist-mathematician at Institute for Entrepreneurship, Zhovti Vody, Dnipropetrovs'k reg., Ukraine.
I'm interested in software developing techniques and technologies and in software development process managing. During my entire professional career I was using such programming languages as C, C++, C#, Intel x86 assembler, Python, Perl, shell, Object Pascal, Visual Basic, Java, JavaScript, etc. I was using .NET, MFC, STL, boost, Xerces, Xalan, JSP, JSF and so on. I was developing under and for Windows 3/9x/2000/XP/Vista, Linux, AIX, Windows CE/Pocket PC, MS DOS. I was implementing GUI, performance optimization (my favorite), AI algorithms and common libraries.
My hobbies are music (avant-garde, jazz, classical music and extremely hard thrash/death metal) and playing guitar, sport (jogging and swimming), reading books (scientific fantastic, philosophy) and watching movies (art-house and psychedelic ones).
Over the years, I have written a few books, manuals and publications.
