About
His early chess career skyrocketed after winning the European Youth Rapid U-8 Championship, after which he went on to win 6 Youth National Championships in a row and represent Serbia at the European and World Championships each year. By becoming the youngest Serbian Grandmaster ever, at the age of 16, he earned a full-ride scholarship at the University of Missouri, which he joined in 2022. The following two years he managed to bring Serbia first medals at the World Juniors Championships, and become one of only few people in the world to ever medal at two of those in a row. He is look forward to sharing his vast experience with students and guide them towards reaching their full potential!
Chess imitates life, as every move shapes your future, and hesitation can cost you everything.
