THOMAS NAGEL
I was born and grew up in Pittsburgh, PA and did my undergrad at Pitt, where I majored in engineering but fell in love with philosophy. Since then, my love affair convinced me to leave a stable job, good pay, and contributing to society for the chance to 'do' philosophy professionally - I know, doesn't make much sense on paper...
I completed my Master's degree in philosophy from the University of Houston in May of 2024. You can find out more about my research interests and future studies by checking out my CV or Current Research page of this website.
I've always been deeply interested in freedom, agency, and responsibility--those questions (in a religious context) were what got me interested in philosophy in the first place! I'm also interested in metaethics, moral psychology, and normative epistemology.
I was born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA and did my undergraduate degree at the University of Pittsburgh. I majored in mechanical engineering and minored in philosophy. After graduating, I spent three years working in the engineering field and further exploring philosophy with the aim of going back to graduate school. While I'm not using much of Pitt's $100k engineering degree these days, it did allow me to fix up this beauty and keep her running well enough (so far...)
I completed my Master's in philosophy at the University of Houston this past May. Truly, I loved every minute of my time there--late nights reading and writing, violating modus tollens, and even grading undergrad papers. Besides reading for work and 'fun,' I love to play golf (even though I rarely break into those sweet 70's), hike, and play tennis, racquetball, or any other pickup sports I can find.
