Hi, I'm Lily Zhou. Welcome to my website!

I'm a 4th year student studying accounting and financial management with a computing minor at the University of Waterloo. As a FIDE Women's Candidate Master in chess, I have been able to grow my problem-solving and analytical skills aswell as volunteer in my free time to encourage other women to play. Additionally on my own time, I love to sing, play the piano, and learn new things!
