Accomplishments

    Learn to play chess as an adolescent.

    Learned to play chess skillfully as a teen

    Begin to teach chess to other while in community college. I currently volunteer with the non-profit make every move count, acting as the vice president. I teach adolescence, teens and adults about chess. How the game is play, identifying the pieces names, moves and their values. Also the similarities between life and playing chess. My philosophy is, no one is to young or to old to learn to play the game, and I pride myself on being skilled at teaching all age levels.
