My Chess Journey

I picked up my first chess piece at age 7, taught by my father and sister. That spark of curiosity ignited a 17-year competitive journey — 3x District Champion, multiple State podium finishes, National qualifier, and proud Asian Chess Championship qualifier. Now I channel every lesson from that journey into coaching the next generation of champions.

Teaching Philosophy

I believe chess is more than a board game — it is a powerful tool for building discipline, strategic thinking, and resilience in young minds. My coaching is rooted in the same journey I took: start with curiosity, build strong fundamentals, and never stop challenging yourself. Every child learns differently, so I tailor each session to the student — whether they are touching a chess piece for the first time or preparing for a national tournament. My goal is not just to create strong players, but confident thinkers who carry the lessons of chess into every area of their lives.
