Thomas Kurek

Thomas uniquely blends expository, technical, and creative writing in his nonfiction writing. As a young music prodigy who wrote his first song at age twelve, and his first lyrics at age eight, a lyrical style of creative writing comes naturally to him.

He enjoys deep interpersonal connections, playing guitar, writing songs, singing, solving complex problems, community development, history, classic literature, culture and music festivals, live theater, weight lifting, running, and academic lectures. His family hails from Buffalo, New York. He currently lives just outside of Washington, D.C., on the Virginia side of the Potomac where the swampy summer is tamed by the majestic fall.

Thomas was educated in the competitive Washington DC suburbs, in a gifted-and-talented program curated with Mortimer Adler’s classical education model. His admittance to the program was granted after a day-and-a-half of IQ testing that put him in the 99.995th percentile (the smartest person in a random sampling of 18,000 people).

He holds a B.Sc. in Engineering Physics (ESM) with a concentration in Biomechanics, default mathematics minor, and pre-med qualification from Virginia Tech – a program ranked fifth in the entire world during his time. Thomas completed a special program at Richmond University for civics, and postgraduate research in political economy, published in his first textbook - Economic Sovereignty: Prosperity in a Free Society.

Thomas has served the US State Department, the Department of Defense Policy directorate (DoD USDP), JSOC, NRO, JCS, the FBI, the State of New Jersey, Washington DC Medicaid systems, e-Commerce systems now integrated into Amazon’s code, and international real estate technology systems. He has invented technologies for music commerce, artificial intelligence, and social media systems based on his proprietary economic and cultural models. He has also contributed to the invention of medical technologies.
