Profile: https://flows.cv/chrisgregory1

I'm a software engineer who loves fast & reliable software and specializing in low level C++.  I'm currently working on trading platforms.

In my free time, I create developer tools using Data-Oriented Design.  I've written my own text editor (Mag), shell and terminal (Tesh) from scratch and use them everyday at work.

See my resume or GitHub for more details about my experience.
