Occupation: Student--High School Senior
Outside of chess, I participate in school academic clubs namely, math team, scholastic bowl, and WYSE (I still haven't figured out what those four letters stand for, and if I did, I obviously forgot.)
I first started playing chess when I was seven years old when my dad tried teaching me. I got bored of it because he always won, and I felt that I wasn't meant for the game. That changed during my sophomore year of high school. I decided to join the chess team and was 8th seat during my sophomore, 5th seat in junior year, and 3rd and 2nd seat for senior year. (I challenged our 2nd board and took his position.)
Favorite openings--
Italian Game, Philidor Defense... and possibly more in the future
