EP #15: Allen Priest

This month's guest is Allen Priest, the president of the US Chess Executive Board. We talk about where US Chess has been, where we are going, and take an in-depth look at the just-revised US Chess Values.

Allen Priest has been the US Chess president since 2018 and is the 29th president in our 80 year history. He was first elected to the executive board in 2011. He lives in the Commonwealth of Kentucky where he is a CPA, a field he has worked in since 1982 and which has allowed him to bring his experience in non-profit audit, tax compliance, and benefit plans to US Chess. He first became a US Chess delegate from Kentucky in 2007 and has served on various committees including finance, audit, bylaws, forums, and LMA.
