I’m Nikhil — FIDE Master, Chess Coach and Writer

In my 16-year journey within the industry, I’ve had the pleasure of travelling to more than 25 countries playing chess tournaments and representing India.

Apart from chess I have helped different companies for marketing and growing the brand through organic searches.

Since childhood, sports have been my enduring source of inspiration, profoundly shaping my perspective, leadership approach, and day-to-day living.
