Brian Cato pursued dual majors in philosophy and chemistry at Brown University. He's worked as a synthetic organic chemist, an MCAT instructor, and a software engineer, taking breaks to spend time teaching English in China and to write. His short fiction has appeared in decomP Magazine and the Sci Phi Journal. His novels draw on his unique training in rational thinking and the scientific method as well as an abiding interest in the phenomenon of the mind, the genesis of identity, and the persistent irrationality of the human creature, himself included.
He lives on the New Jersey side of the shadow of New York City with his wife and daughter. He can be found at briancato.com.
