About me
I'm Nacho and I'm a
Hello! I am a Computer Science Engineer and Data Scientist from a little town in Ávila (Spain), but currently based in Madrid. I have worked in a wide range of domains such as cloud services, machine learning, medical devices or telecommunications.
Why did I choose to study computer science? Because I love to design, build and develop anything that can help people to improve their lives!
I love to practise sport (specially football, surf, padel or cycling), travel or spend time with my family and friends during my free time. Animals are also one of my weaknesses!

Software Engineer & Data Scientist
Plenoptika Europe Globally, there is a critical need for technology tools that increase accessibility to vision care to address the most common cause of visual disability: uncorrected refractive errors. Due to a global shortage of eye care professionals, it is often difficult, particularly in underdeveloped areas, to obtain accurate eyeglass prescriptions that correct refractive errors effectively and achieve to restore vision. This project consisted on the development of a machine learning engine based on Python and AWS with the potential to address this global problem, simplifying and accelerating the process for eyeglass prescription.
