What surprised me most about my chess development is how the marginal gains from consistent training really add up over time. It's a reminder that steady progress truly pays off.

I went from 597 to 1604, created an account in December 2023 and it hasn't been a year. I joined school when I was at 1200 and thanks to Dina and the community I have been able to gain 400 Elo while I was here.

I do a lot of puzzles and study different positional concepts, and I see that improvement during my games. This year I won the women’s prize in my section at the Toronto Open.
