Mini-Biography: |
I am a professional bridge player, coach and teacher from Madison WI I beginning playing bridge at home where my passion for the game emerged. In 1997 my brother and I were selected to go to the 2nd junior world championships in Italy, where the competitive bug sunk in.
It was in 2004 that I began reading insatiably and playing took me on the road. I started hopping across the nation on the tournament trail gaining experience and numerous wins, also selling bridge books to supplement my income. I became known as " the book seller" for a period of time. The demands for me to play, teach and coach became increasingly more demanding that led me to full time playing. My goals are to continue to excel and pass on my love and passion for the game to my students and partners in my lectures, seminars
I play at all levels of bridge from playing in the USBF trials for team USA, Nationals and at my mother's club game in Madison

My accomplishments in bridge are numerous, becoming a Grand Life Master in 2011 in only 7 years
Now with over 22,000 masterpoints and over 500 blue ribbon qualifications 1st in Open Jacoby Swiss, 2nd in the Spingold, open BAM, twice in the Roth open swiss, and a mixed BAM. Other wins in limited events: Red Ribbon, Mini-Blue Ribbon and Mini-Spingold to mention a few noted events.
My most recent accomplishment was a run in the 2017 teamtrials. As the original 14 seed my team beat the eventual USA2 winners in the round for USA1. You can read about some of the matches in the July ACBL Bulletin. See me in interview with Oren Kriegel
