"Hi! My name is Marty, I am 25 years old and I love learning. I love helping others learn. I have played chess since I was about 8 years old, and it has become my passion. My USCF rating is 1788 currently, but I feel it will go up since I have only played a few rated events so far. This places me at about the 90% level for all registered chess players. I may never be a master, but I can help you become one, or at least be as good as I am.

I did well in college. I graduated with 3.94 EPA (I got one "C" as I started dating my wife and placed one particularly uninteresting class on the back burner.).

I love science! I read about it quite a bit, study it, think about it. I may not be able to teach a college course on it, but I can help you pass one.

I have an Associate's Degree in Computer Networking and Support.

I've played chess constantly for 10+ years, I study and read constantly, my tactics rating on chess.com is 2072 currently, USCF rating at 1788.

I'll help any way I can." less...
