Hello. I have been studying chess for 2 years. I have alot of learning to do still and I am open to many forms of chess( blitz, correspondence,960), I also play the tactical trainer from time to time, although I should use it more.

. All of my chess play on here is not idle. I do take away lessons from my opponents...win or lose. I also like to make friends. I play a lot of Correspondence Chess for ICCF and for the USCF.I am also going to AMU for Logistics and Transportation.

While not occupied with school, work or other distractions, ( College 2nd time around is easier and harder.) I like to train my brain with chess and relax. I also like to exercise and study about military world history, a 2nd generation Russian American. I enjoy sitcoms and some would say I have a sense of humor :)

My chess coach is IM Valeri Lilov. He is on my friend list. I suggest you speak to him if you are interested in chess lessons.

I am a proud member of Team Russia!!!

The link below is another cool place for chess. I will be playing my official FIDE rated games here.
