I loved video games throughout my entire childhood. My shining moments were being a finalist in the 1990 and 1994 Nintendo World Championships. Soon after turning 18 though I had to deal with some family issues which would keep me away from the video game scene for the next 20+ years, including playing Tetris, my all-time favorite game. After learning of the Classic Tetris World Championships (CTWC) in 2017, I have now gotten back into playing competitively again as an adult! At the time I started playing in late July 2018 I could not start on level 18 and couldn’t even score above 400k. I set out on a mission and made it a goal to max out the game in one year before the end of the following summer 2019. Well after only one year being back playing again and almost one year to the day I did it — I maxed out the game on August 9, 2019! So proud. I almost feel like this is more of an accomplishment that I achieved this as an older adult. You can check me out on Twitch playing casually and in tournaments from time to time. Thanks for checking me out!
