When I picked up chess in May, I fell all the way to a 123 rapid rating. I honestly had no clue what I was doing (still don’t sometimes). I taught myself from YouTube videos and sheer competitive drive, and managed to climb past 1200 within a few months.

Now I’m climbing to 1500 and filming every win, every loss, every dumb blunder along the way. If you’re here, you’re probably on your own climb too. Hope to see you around!
