Ignacio Blancas Rodriguez

Math & CS @ Brown University

Most people know me by Nacho and I am currently a junior at Brown University. I am concentrating in Mathematics and Computer Science and find great interest in Cryptography, Machine Learning, Algebraic Geometry and math in general. I am constantly learning and eager to tackle a new problem or engage in an interesting conversation.
