Chess

I also teach chess...

I've taught chess in NYC, AZ and NC for 16 years. I've worked with private, public, Title 1, bilingual, ELL, parochial, charter, & homeschools.

My book was published in 2014 - *My First Chess Book: 35 Easy and Fun Chess-Based Activities For Kids*. Get a copy!

Founder & Director

Being a small-business owner means I work all.the.time. It also means I get to hang out with my baby (who is now three).
