Hi guys!
I'm pretty new here, but not to chess. However, I still have A LOT of room for improvement. Take the game below:

Although I won the game, I tend to analyse each game at the end to find out what I did wrong and what I did right (I think I know most of what I did right).
However, I am more interested in what I could have done to improve my chances of winning. I have already picked out some of the mistakes:
*I could have done the bishop check discovered attach with the queen much earlier
*Some people say that I should not have made him do a bishop-knight exchange. However, my opinion is that I don't value my knights as much as my bishops. Also, if you notice, most of my pawns were positioned in chains on the colour of his other bishop, and hence made that bishop useless. Some people said that it was the reason why although there was an exchange, I had a higher material value than him.
What else would you guys suggest that I should have done?
