New Program Chair

January 2, 2023

Last year's program, arranged by Conor Hoekstra, was a major contributing factor to the conference's success. This year due to other time commitments Conor, unfortunately, cannot perform this role. Amund Desmarais has graciously agreed to step in. Amund is a senior software developer lead on the AXIS team at Moody's Analytics. Alongside of his work in C++ he likes to dabble in other languages and technologies. Due to growing up in Canada he continually faces difficulty when choosing between "colour" and "color" when naming his classes/variables.

Amund has been in the role since October and has already lined up an amazing team of keynote speakers that will make this year's program shine.
