Math, Games, and More

I am a graduate student in math and a software engineer. I am interested in a variety of things related to mathematics, computer science(in particular, computer graphics), and cooking.

I maintain a few very small open source projects. Most of them are not at all useful, but rather were just for fun :)

The best way to get in contact with me is through email. I can be reached at mankowskinick@gmail.com.
