Short biography:

I was born 30 June 1985 in Donetsk. My father is Pivnenko Vladimir, he is an engineer. My mother is Pivnenko Elena. She is accountant.

I have not much remembrance from my childhood. I remember how we fly to Russia (actually it was USSR :) ), in the city of Perm. I had went to kindergarten. Also in that time I did figure skating.

I went to school in 1991, I was 6. That school had a number - 12. I liked to study, I wanted to be better that all.

From the 5th grade I moved to another school (number 61). At that time I began to like math & English subjects. I also decided to make some sport - "judo". I did it for 2 year. Maybe I had understood that I'm not born for sport. At that time I had my first computer. It had no name, but it had possibility to connect to tape recorder & to use an add-in card with BASIC on-board. That computer introduced me such things as computer program, programming language. With my father we began to study BASIC & even made some simple programs. My first video game I played on that computer.

School number 61 left me not very good impressions. After that my friend told me about Donetsk College & I've made a decision to study there.

There were many interesting things in College: studying by terms, student's record-book, many optional classes (Latin language, astronomy, etc.) But computer science moves to the first place for me.

At 10th grade with my parents we began to think about continuation of my education. My parents offered me medical university. But I was not interested in it. I wanted to study computers. And I suggested DonNTU.

On the third year of my education in university I became interested in 3d graphics. It's the most interesting thing in programming. I still like video games, so I'd like to develop a computer game (of course 3d one). That's why I had no problems with defining theme of master's work.

My first goal is to develop my master's work. If I'd like it, I'll have no problems at all. :) After that I want to work up my own video game.
