About Mike - Yeh, it's Me

Name: Michael Alexander Wilkinson

Date of Birth: 24th April 1989

Interests: The Internet, Web Design, Some Video Games, Hull City FC, Music and Singing

Music: I listen to a lot of music, mainly on my iPod. Some of my most loved artists are 'Daft Punk', 'Black Eyed Peas' and 'The Pussycat Dolls'.

Internet History: A lot of website design I have personally done, to start off with, were on paper, without any means to put the design onto the web, then I moved onto 'Photoshop' in my own time, still with no means to put it onto the web. After my year in Oxford, I looked into designing in more detail which lead to me applying for this course.

In your own words:

When I was younger, we had a computer and from then on, I've always used a computer to design. From Certificates to Advert posters, I designed it using a computer. Eventually, my curiosity pulled me towards Adobe 'Photoshop'. I used it a lot, but I had no real use for it, just making my own little website banners and such that I had nowhere to put them. When I was 18, I was granted a place in Oxford Brookes University, I studied there for 1 year while doing a Foundation Degree in Engineering. After the year, I felt like I didn't want to do Engineering and I looked around for something I enjoyed to do, and I found Web Design at Hull School of Art and Design, in Hull, my home town.
