I am a person who is trying to improve raw skill in the game as well as getting a title for a free diamond membership. I really like chess and want to use it to improve skills that I need to be an effective human being, such as creativity and problem-solving efficiency. I really got into being active on chess.com in the past few months.

I'm always up for a friendly challenge or sharing tips with fellow enthusiasts. If you're into improvement, deep analysis, or just some good chess banter, feel free to connect! You can also check out my blog for updates on my progress and thoughts on both chess and life beyond the board.

NOTE (posted on 1/20/25) - I'm on a bullet chess detox, so the challenges I'll accept should be rapid and blitz. My favorites are 10/0, 15/10, 5/0, 3/0, and 3/1. If your rating is over 200+ than mine, please send an unrated challenge. 

Let’s grow together—both as chess players and individuals. Happy playing!
