Nicholas Lam joined TIFF in 2022 as an analyst on the Private Market’s team, working across the firm’s primary fund commitments and PE direct investment opportunities.

Nicholas graduated from Bowdoin College, double majoring in Economics and Government/Legal Studies. He actively volunteers at the Jimmy Fund and Mid Coast Hunger Prevention. His favorite volunteer event is the Jimmy Fund Scooper Bowl, which is an ice-cream fundraiser held in Boston Common and Boston’s City Plaza raising money for cancer research.

In his free time, Nicholas enjoys travelling and reading. While travelling throughout Europe in college, Nicholas studied the effect of religion on Italian cultural norms and visited historical sites like the Vatican and St. Peter’s Basilica. Some of his favorite books include How to Lie with Statistics and Freefall, which began his interest in investing and risk management.
