I am Matthew Timothy Patrick (mattimpat) from England. I am 17 and studying Maths, Computing, Physics, History and French at AS level (the first year of A levels). I am hoping to find my way onto a university course in Computer Science once I leave Sixth Form.
I have played chess (very casually) for most of my life and also enjoy table tennis, programming and reading. I am hoping chess will boost my reasoning and analytical skills. If not, its a fun waste of time better spent studying :-)
