Item Description

Premier Chess CEO Evan Rabin fell in love with chess at a young age. When he was seven, his brother and father taught him how to play. Two months later he was playing in school. Two months after that, he went to his first tournament. One month later, he went to Nationals. He never looked back.

After graduating from Brandeis University, Evan started teaching chess full-time, but eventually decided to set his sights on the corporate world, working at Oracle and Rapid7 and briefly running his own sales company, Pillar Sales. Evan left Pillar Sales in July of 2017 and founded Premier Chess. Utilizing the chess network that he had built throughout his life and his sales experience, Evan started programs in 14 schools within two months. From there he started offering corporate classes, working with clients like Kramer-Levin, a top New York City law firm, and Movable Inc.

Now, partnering with vendors like the National Scholastic Chess Foundation, National Education Chess Association, and Top Level Chess, Premier Chess is expanding to Florida, Massachusetts, Washington, Colorado, while international efforts are continuing in Myanmar. One day, Evan hopes that any student anywhere in the world who wants to play chess will be able to.

This package includes a one-hour virtual chess lesson for up to 10 people (adults and/or kids) with National Chess Master & CEO of Premier Chess, Evan Rabin.

At the conclusion of the auction, more details will be sent to the winning bidder to redeem and schedule the chess lesson at a mutually agreed upon date/time.
