Kyle Blocher, AGA 5-dan (Chinese 4-dan) player living in Champaign, Illinois, USA, playing since January 2006. Also known as 林凯 in Chinese. I run a small software consulting firm in Champaign, Illinois.

I very rarely get a chance to play over the board nowadays, but I do engage in teaching Go as a tool in management leadership training, and am an active reviewer for the Go Teaching Ladder. I really do not enjoy KGS, therefore am very excited to see an alternative to KGS becoming more popular in the Western hemisphere.

My most recent public work was a lecture on endgame counting ( video) for the 2012 Go Symposium.
