I am a professional chess instructor residing in Rhode Island. I have been teaching chess for 20 years, currently working with multiple scholastic teams and private students.

I specialize in decision making policies and processes, helping students understand how their minds work and how to create better, healthier habits. I teach people of all ages. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced player, I can help you improve your understanding and enjoy the game more.

I offer online and in-person classes at reasonable rates, including access to my extensive library of chess resources. I also provide personalized game analysis, customized repertoires, and training based on individual weaknesses. If you are interested in learning chess as a beginner or improving your game to the expert level, please feel free to contact me.
