Hello everyone!!! After several years of playing chess casually, I started taking chess seriously around March 2023. Since joining chess.com, I went from about 500-600 elo to 1700-2000 elo in all time controls in just a year! My goal is to become a titled player and hopefully a GM. Although I haven't competed in any OTB rated chess tournaments yet, I'm hoping to play in one soon. My favorite chess player is Magnus Carlsen. Some of my favorite openings are The English, Queen's Gambit, Sicilian Defense, Levitsky Attack, and Trompowsky Attack.

Some of my other hobbies include Language learning, Juggling, Coin collecting, Gardening, and spending time with nature.

As for my language learning, I'm currently learning Spanish, Romanian, Hebrew, German, and a few more very casually. Out of those languages, Spanish is the one I'm being most serious about. However, I am also aiming to be able to understand and speak Romanian and Hebrew.

Juggling is one of my other hobbies that I enjoy. A good friend of mine inspired and taught me. I have been practicing for about a year and am able to juggle 4 balls at once.

I've also been learning how to solve a Rubik's cube. I'm not able to solve it completely and haven't been serious about it in awhile but I hope to learn the rest eventually.

https://www.chess.com/game/live/117946745843 The game above is one of my most beautiful games! I played with over 94% accuracy and delivered a smothered checkmate! It was 30 sec bullet which makes it much more difficult to achieve such a good
 game.

Here's a game where I checkmated a 3000+ rated player in 10 sec bullet.
