Militano began skating seriously by the age of 7. Two years later, he formed a pair with his sister Melissa. They lived on Long Island and were trained by Peter Dunfield at Sky Rink in New York City.

Militano had an early interest in composing music, and he and his sister skated to one of his compositions when they were still in their teens. Later in life, Militano wrote music that was used by Nancy Kerrigan for her short programs at both the 1992 and 1994 Winter Olympics.

As of 2010, Militano and his wife, former competitor Jana Sjodin, run a coaching, music, and choreography business in the Minneapolis area, Milimar Inc.
