I started playing chess at the age of 5 and my ambition is to become a GM (Grandmaster).
I am currently an IM (International Master) and am working towards achieving the necessary rating and norms needed for a GM (Grandmaster) title, the highest title (below World Champion!) possible.
I am currently a full-time chess coach/player, in 2005 I was a coach for England's team at the 1st FIDE World Schools Championship in Halkadiki, Greece and in 2006 I coached with the England Team at the European Youth Championships in Montenegro. I have regularly coached at World and European Youth Championships since.

I have worked as a Sports Ambassador for my local council (what do you mean chess isn't a sport?!) working for an organization called Sports4u. I went into local schools to promote chess and encourage the schools to setup chess clubs. Heres a few blasts from the past. Click the pics to enlarge:
