Bhavesh Kotta
After many years of playing chess, Bhavesh Kotta, a current student at Collierville High School, has decided to enlighten a new generation of kids with the magnificent game of chess. He has played chess since kindergarten, and since that time, he has been on a journey to become the best chess player he can be. He has already started his journey of teaching chess through his time at Collierville Middle School and continues to do so through Memphis Youth Chess Organization. He hopes that he can foster a love for the game of chess in the youth of our world and hopes to show them that learning the game can also help them become better thinkers by giving them different ways to dissect any situation that is thrown at them.
