Hello! I am Micah D’Amico, a 15-year-old self-taught chess player and coach specializing in bullet chess, puzzles/rush, lessons, club management, and blogging. I am the founder of Brainy Bishops and hold administrative roles in multiple respected clubs. I have completed over 1,750 Chess.com lessons and rank in the top 0.1% globally. I also rank in the top 0.8% globally for rated puzzles (1960+), with a Puzzle Rush personal best of 37. My peak ratings are 1111 on Chess.com (bullet), 1652 on Lichess (bullet), and 1192 on FIDE Arena.

I offer coaching for beginner bullet players (up to ~1000 Elo) and am currently available for lessons—send me a DM to start improving through 1-on-1 training. My sessions cover premove accuracy, flagging techniques, opening tricks, and more to help you outplay opponents under time pressure.
