"I began playing chess at the age of 6 and have been playing for more than 12 years. I am a US Chess National Master (2200+ rating) and one of the highest ranked girls in the U.S. I am also a Woman Fide Master (WFM) and I have all of my norms for Woman International Master (WIM). I have represented the U.S. in four world cadet/youth tournaments; my best performance was placing 7th in the girls under 14 section.

I have been coaching chess for more than two years and have helped many of my students improve their play. I can help you prepare for local, national and international tournaments.

I will be attending the University of Chicago this Fall."
