My school years were filled with more fun than work, and in 1992 I graduated from the Kapetanakeio High School. In the same year I passed the entry examinations for the university, so I moved to Athens where I stayed for one semester, attending classes at the Mathematics Department of the University of Athens. I figured Athens was not as much fun for the notorious, long-awaited "college life", so I decided to move back to Crete. In 1997 I received my B.Sc. degree in Mathematics from the University of Crete. In the meantime, I had the chance to meet many nice people, and still very good friends of mine, and did lots of crazy things that I do not find appropriate to mention here :-)

So, 1997 came, officially then my college life was over, and it was expected that I got more serious about life... (or... maybe not ?). Before deciding to be more of an adult, I did the craziest thing in my life... I came to Minnesota (don't tell anyone, but it takes much insanity to leave Greece and go to Minnesota!). Well, here I am now, a Ph.D. student at the Computer Science Department of the University of Minnesota, in the Scientific Computation Program, trying to persuade myself that snow can actually be fun...
