Hi, I'm Richard, known digitally as zygoloid (/ˈzaɪ.ɡə.lɔɪd/).

I currently work as a software engineer at Google. I have an interest in programming language design and implementation, and have contributed extensively to Clang and the C++ programming language. These days I'm building a new programming language, Carbon.

I enjoy pencil puzzles, cryptic crosswords and video gaming, and live in the San Francisco Bay Area with two cats. I hold a degree in Mathematics from the University of Cambridge.
