About Me:
B.S. Mathematics/Physics (double major) WSU 2006.
Currently working in the Milwaukee/Chicago metro area for an international equipment manufacturer. The seasonal variance in schedule has recently precluded OTB play.
I learned to play chess when I was quite young and have spent many years away from the game. I have been using the site in an attempt to improve my play over the board through positional and tactical analysis of each game.
This has not worked out very well as I still tend to move too quickly and seem to be "blind" to the edges of the board when playing OTB. I may need to start Blitzing more and playing fewer long games if I'm going to shake the OTB monkey off my back.
