I consider myself a casual chess player since I have never gotten over an 1150 or so rating here on RHP or at any other chess sites, and have tended to remain at about the 1000 level. I've never taken any lessons or coaching on the game, though I have read and refer to a couple of books on openings and tactics on occasion.

With a new found energy and ambition after having taken a year or so off by not playing at all, I am once again getting back into this great game with a will to really try to improve how I play.

Regardless of whether or not that occurs, I do enjoy playing again, and look forward to playing some of you in the future! My other interests are photography, soccer, and hockey.
