---

I am currently a student at Northeastern University in Boston, MA. I study dramaturgy, sociology of knowledge, sociology of law, semiotics, phenomenology and social theory. For over a decade, I conducted ethnographic research in the inflatable amusements industry studying the phenomenon of temporality and social interaction. Simultaneously, as an avid chess player, I won 3 State Chess Championships and other honors. I use my deep understanding of chess to bring to light new perspectives in sociology, criminology, semiotics, phenomenology and dramaturgy.

I am also the author of a series of chess books specifically designed for Amazon's Kindle wireless reading device.  

About ReViewing Chess(TM):

This series reverts back to a nineteenth century printing technique, cinéma des échecs, to reinvent the chess book as a training tool. Based on a method that not only understands the problems facing those whom attempt to study the game but addresses these problems head on by realizing a framework that eliminates the social obstacles (i.e. friends, family, life in general;) preventing players from recognizing the joy and intellectual satisfaction the study of chess inspires.
