About Erick

As a Civil Engineer by trade, I have been an avid chess player since childhood. Throughout my school years, I actively participated in numerous tournaments, and my passion for the game has never waned. Chess has played a significant role in cultivating my critical thinking abilities, and now I aspire to impart this valuable skill to other children.
