About Me:

When I grew up, my father and brother were pretty serious about chess.  I played, but was never that interested in chess.  As an adult, I am a volunteer mentor for at-risk kids.  I play chess with them and I learn many things about their personality by the way they play chess.  Chess is an excellent reflection on life in many ways.  One of those kids plays here as well.  My father, brother, uncle, and several friends are all playing on chess.com.
