Bio


Born in 1954 and married since 1979. Two grown kids. Took up chess at 13 and started USCF tournaments at 14. Peak USCF rating was 2250 (so far!). Never have used a chess computer.

Work as a CPA in industry. Hobbies other than chess include listening to classical music (Go Shostakovich!), rock n' roll (Go King's X!), studying Reformed theology (Go John Calvin!), and reading American history (Go Republican Party!).

Main goal at Arcadia is to whoop Gregg Fritchle. So far we have drawn every game we ever played against each other.
