I graduated from the Jagiellonian University. After defence of master thesis (link to presentation) I have started professional programming in C and C++ using OpenGL. After that, my Company gave me a chance to switch to .Net framework and C# and I have betrayed my passion for computer graphics. Now I'm C#, SQL and sometimes ASP.NET programmer.
