About

A bit about me

I won the Commonwealth Under-20 gold medal and became a FIDE Master in 2018. I earned my IM title in 2025, after scoring norms in Serbia, the Czech Republic, the UAE, Spain and France.

I still play tournaments and go through my own games to see what I can improve. In lessons, we do the same with yours.

I had a great chat and chess review with Suyog. He's passionate and knowledgable about chess, but he was also willing to explore the psychological aspects about playing chess and the beautiful mysteries of the game. Definitely give Suyog a try if you're stuck and looking for advice from an experienced player!

He was very professional throughout the session, explained everything clearly, and gave me some really useful and practical tools that I can directly implement into my chess thinking process and overall game to help improve my skills.
