I started playing chess when I was around 7 or 8 years old. My father would often set up the board with half of his pieces missing, but still, he always managed to win! One of the first openings I remember learning from him was the Scotch Four Knights. Since then, I’ve kept up with the game and remain a dedicated student. About a year ago, I came across this amazing site and was thrilled to find a community of people who love chess as much as I do. In my everyday life, it’s rare to find others who share this passion.

I’m also a huge fan of Andrea Bocelli—his voice brings me so much joy and inspiration.

I play chess on an iPad, and I’m still getting used to the app, so if I take a little longer to respond, please don’t think I’m being rude!
