National Master with peak online ratings of 3410 Bullet (#3 in the World), 3056 Blitz (#133), and 2656 Rapid (#4).

Reignited my passion for chess at 12 with the humble goal of attaining 2000, late 2020 after being plateaued at 1600 for over a year. Five years of obsession later, I've surpassed every expectation my 12-year-old self could have imagined. With unwavering determination, you can achieve your wildest dreams, in not just chess – any pursuit. Keep pushing!

“I know of no better life purpose than to perish attempting the great and impossible. The fact that something seems impossible should not be a reason to not pursue it. That’s exactly what makes it worth pursuing. Where would the courage and greatness be if success was certain and there was no risk?” - Friedrich Nietzsche
