Howdy, I'm Cameron Pfiffer.

I'm an engineer, statistician, economist, and hammock enthusiast. I like writing code for supercomputers. I love code, statistics, rowing, and pianos. Learning is my favorite thing.

I am building a communal thinking platform called Comind. You can read more about the thesis of the project here, and see the Patreon here.

I'm a big lover of the Julia programming language. I've worked on the Turing.jl project for Bayesian inference. I also head up the JuliaGenAI project along with Jan Siml, which is a collection of tools for using Julia in generative AI contexts.

I am a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford's GSB. I work on industrial organization with Shoshana Vasserman. I received my PhD in finance from the University of Oregon. I have a master's in finance from the ICMA Centre at the Henley Business School (which itself is part of the University of Reading), and a BSc in Technical Theater from Southern Oregon University. I'm often a developer for Turing.jl, a probabilistic programming tool, though have since fallen out of active development.

I used to be an alpaca rancher and work for Cirque du Soleil. I'm really fun at parties, and I am a fantastic dancer.
