I want to help get the word out about chess and the fun and joys it brings. The United States Chess Federation has 85,000 members – that is one member of every 3,000 U.S. inhabitant aged 10 years or older. That doesn’t impress me, and I want us to increase the number by 10x!

I do not have fancy chess titles or trophies, but I do know one thing: The benefits of chess are so many and we need to get the word out. I started my journey by donating 20 chess sets to my local elementary school, and I am not stopping there.
