Tom has earned the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA®)1 designation and has a Ph.D. in mathematics from Purdue University where he wrote his thesis on Complex Dynamics, a branch of chaos theory.  His study of chaos theory led to his conviction that knowing the limits of our ability to predict is much more important than predictions themselves, a lesson he applies to both climate science and the financial markets.
