ABOUT NICHOLAS WARD
Hi! I\'m Nick. I\'m a senior software engineer at Capital One Software, working in Rust on the Databolt secure tokenization product.Previously, I did full-stack work on the monetization team at ZipRecruiter. Before that I was a cryptographer at Polygon Technology, working on the math behind the next generation of blockchain scaling solutions. My graduate research focused on designing new succinct argument protocols (better known as zkSNARKs, or zero-knowledge proofs); creating efficient and usable implementations in code; and exploring their applications to blockchain and other areas. As an engineer, I continued to work on implementing, improving, and optimizing proof systems.I love Jesus, and I like running, cooking, baking, reading, meme-making, and messing around with a soccer ball or on a piano
