He specializes in Ancient Greek Philosophy, focusing particularly on metaphysics and the philosophy of science. With a PhD in Philosophy from the University of Chicago obtained in 2021, as well as a master's degree from the same institution and a bachelor's degree from Penn State University, Brooks has developed a nuanced understanding of historical philosophical texts.
