Christopher is a Staff Software Engineer on the ComputeCpp Runtime for Codeplay Software and a co-founding member of SG20. He is passionate about teaching people how to write programs using idiomatic C++, and also advocates for developers to consider adopting algorithms and ranges. When not thinking about C++, Chris is often playing games, watching films, or trying something new.
