i guess i should do a little intro of myself, i'm emilia! i'm a 2nd year phd candidate doing research on chess and soft power diplomacy, i also run a nonprofit called the Women in Chess Foundation, and i am a photographer and social media manager for chess players/tournaments

i've been mostly conveying my finds in the archives about the 1954 chess olympiad to my friends like it's the juiciest gossip

i have finally decided to actually exist on bluesky, mostly because i want to yap about chess history stuff while im at the fide archives
