Hi, I’m Alexander Pasch, a native of Austin, TX, USA.
I graduated with a B.S. in Neuroscience (2019) and a B.A. in Philosophy (2021) from UT Austin. I have worked as a private tutor in all subjects for students since 2019 with a focus on scheduling, long-term goal setting, and core math skills. I worked for a year as a post-bacc researcher studying mindfulness based attention training with Finding Focus, a joint partnership between UT Austin and UC Santa Barbara. Currently, I am a consultant with NetSuite, a branch of Oracle.
Beyond this, I like thinking about long-term political and cultural trends, self-improvement, attention, moral philosophy, and effective altruism.
On this blog I like to write about books, self-improvement, philosophy, economic and business topics, and other random ideas I have.
You’ll find regular posts published in the following categories:
- Book Reviews
- Ideas about Philosophy and Self Improvement
- Other miscellaneous posts. For example, a look at where I fit in with college graduates.
If you are interested in any of these, or just want to see where this blog goes, feel free to click the follow button below. If you’ve read this far, I think you might enjoy.
Best,
Alexander
