Austin W. H. Purdie

I build systems and software for Zions Bancorporation to make model development and maintenance easier.

I earned a master’s degree in statistics and a bachelor’s degree in mathematics from the University of Utah in 2023 and 2021 respectively. I wrote my master’s thesis on the application of causal inference to examine the relationship between deposit product pricing and deposit volume attrition.

Outside of work, I spend a lot of time practicing the piano (currently working on Bach’s Well-Tempered Clavier Prelude and Fugue in D Minor BVW 851 and Debussy’s Nocturne, CD 89 with my teacher), tinkering with my home lab, and winding down with one of my favorite video games.
