== Why ==
Likes cats, maths & tapas.
APL is fun and the APL community is very friendly and open-minded.
 
He firmly believes that APL is a great tool to teach mathematics and in general to reason with.
 
== What ==
* Software developer in the Big Data realm with a [[wikipedia:Mathematics|mathematics]]  and [[wikipedia:Physics|physics]] background.
 
* [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Pythonista Pythonista] with an interest in functional ([[wikipedia:Scheme|Scheme]]), declarative ([[wikipedia:Prolog|Prolog]], [[wikipedia:SQL|SQL]]), iversonian ([[wikipedia:APL_(programming_language)|APL]], [[wikipedia:J_(programming_language)|J]]) and rapid numerics ([[wikipedia:PARI/GP|PARI/GP]]) languages.
 
* In his free time he enjoys going out with good friends trying out the local cuisine, reading books in English or Greek and Wikipedia lemmas in languages where he's still at a level ∊ ]A0, A1[, such as: Español, Catalá, French, Русский, but which he'd love to learn bit by bit, expanding thus the interval to the semi-closed interval ]A0, A1].
 
* Finally, he loves diving every day deeper and deeper in APL, as well as creating small programming projects that combine not so widely used languages (Scheme, Prolog, APL, J, PARI/GP) that solve some weird problem in mathematics or physics.
 
* Is responsible for the "[[APL ∊ BCN]]" APL user group based in Barcelona, [https://www.dyalog.com/user-groups.htm#Spain Spain].
 
== Where ==
* His hometown is [[wikipedia:Patras|Patras]], a nice city in south-west Greece on the [[wikipedia:Peloponnese|Peloponnese]].
 
* Spent the most important years of his life at the island of [[wikipedia:Crete|Crete]] where he studied Physics at a bachelors' level and graduated at 2010.
 
* After a short trip in Europe during the period 2011-2013 he returned to Patras. There he studied Mathematics at a masters' level and after that he got a job at InSyBio, a bioinformatics startup as a scientific python developer.
 
* On late December of 2019 he got a job offer from [https://webhelp.com/es/ Webhelp Spain], and moved to [[wikipedia:Barcelona|Barcelona]], [[wikipedia:Catalonia|Catalonia]] along with his partner and their cat.
 
== Books ==
* You can see his [[wikipedia:Goodreads|Goodreads]] profile [https://www.goodreads.com/mlliarm  here].
 
== Name ==
* Most Greek friends call him [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CE%9C%CE%B9%CF%87%CE%AC%CE%BB%CE%B7%CF%82 Μιχάλη] and most non Greek friends call him Mike.
* In Spanish "Michail" is pronounced [https://translate.google.com/?sl=es&tl=el&text=Mitsael&op=translate "Mitsael"], which he finds pretty funny and uses it when he has to introduce himself to a local.
