About TournaChess

The inspiration for TournaChess started in a school chess club. I developed a deep passion for scholastic chess after seeing how the game transforms kids, teaching them to approach challenges with strategy and face every outcome with grace.

I became a USCF Tournament Director to help increase local tournament opportunities, but soon realized we needed a better platform. I created TournaChess to ensure that every community, school, and club has the technology necessary to host successful chess events.

I believe that when you make it easier to play, you make it easier to build a community. I'm dedicated to helping organizers spend less time on logistics and more time building the vibrant chess cultures that help players thrive.
