Oct-09-17  alfamikewhiskey: Not very active in chess, Tjølsen is a quiz-book co-author, responsible for the science section (<https://www.cappelendamm.no/sek-ass...>). She cooperates with Hans Olav Lahlum.

She holds a master's degree in comp.science from MIT, and works at McKinsey.

Oct-09-17  Appaz: Another excellent brain, wasted on education rather than chess. It's sad to see.
Oct-09-17  rogge: <Highest rating achieved in database: 2252>

MIT and McKinsey was the smart thing to do.
