In the early years of the Hamilton Chess Club this young man was the dominant force in the club winning everything and amazing everyone as a 15 year old. He went on to win the NJ Scholastic Championship in 1985. His eventual USCF rating would hit a high of nearly 2400.

In the big competitions of his chess career he has 3 wins, 3 draws and only one loss to the former USA Champion, Arthur Bisguier. He can also claim a draw against Yehuda Gruenfeld in either 83 or 84 when he, Gruenfeld had just won the World Open.
