Bill Chapman
SkeptiCamp NYC Profile
| Biography: |
Bill got a BS in Engineering with emphasis on Computer Science from Caltech in 1983, after which he spent about 20 years writing CAD software for chip design.
Outside his major, his education, between high school and college, includes 4 years of physics, 3 of chemistry, and several years of calculus.
Most of Bill's education in economics came from working for Wall Street as a computer programmer since 2005, where his firm would hire former traders to teach the programmers finance and economics.
Bill ran an economics discussion group from 2013-2016 before running out of things to talk about, and switched his focus to climate change in 2016.
In addition to outreach to conservatives, Bill also focuses on trying to promote greater technical sophistication among climate activists. |
