I enjoy playing video games, riding motorcycles, solving Rubik's Cubes, and of course, I love to play chess! I've enjoyed chess for as long as I can remember. I played against my peers in high school and read multiple books on the subject. In college, I taught my wife to play, and now she beats me about half of the time. If you're expecting an easy game, she'll take you by surprise! I consider myself a slightly above average player, with a solid grasp of basic game strategy. I'd love to play in a tournament some day and receive an official rating.
