I'm the Head of Community for Chess.com. I earned the National Master title in 2012, and in 2014, I returned to my home state of South Carolina to start Strategery: Chess and Games. In late 2015, I began working for Chess.com and haven't looked back since. You can find my personal content on Twitch , Twitter , and YouTube where I further indulge my love of chess.

I am a New York-based writer, documentary producer, and chess expert (USCF rating ~2060). My insane obsessive hobby for a long time has been to play through old chess games, more or less in chronological order. I am interested in the evolution of chess and looking to follow various ideas as they develop over time, but most of all, I am interested in the players and in treating them sort of the way an art survey book would treat artists. The theory is that each top player – to consistently defeat other grandmasters – has to bring something new to the game, has to have a philosophy of chess that sets them apart.  I am thrilled to share that there is now a book version of the blog available at Amazon.com.  For non-chess-writing (if there really is such a thi...

Chess is one of the oldest surviving games on the planet, with our current rule system being mostly intact since the 1400s. It's also the most widely played game on the planet. I take interest in the intersection of these two pieces of trivia: the history of competition. I mostly write about 19th century tournaments in my "Winner's POV" series, but if I find something else that's interesting to write about, I shall (ideas welcome).
