Some time in March 2016 I saw my mom playing with a Rubik's Cube, and we had a few little competitions to see who could build a side of a single colour the fastest. She always won, so one day I looked up a full tutorial on how to solve the cube, and pretended like I had figured it out myself to show off to my mom. My first ever timed solve was about 10 minutes.
I've competed in 11 official competitions, and spectated at the 2025 World Championships. Check out my World Cube Association profile to see my official results and rankings! Below is a graph of my personal best times on the standard 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube.
This method is a legit technique that technically reduces a 3x3x3 into a 2x2x2. It is not intended to be used for speedsolving or fewest moves purposes due to the fact that it has a very large average movecount.
ECP is a method that was invented for Athefre's Method Development Competition January 2021 by team Kübirz (which I was a part of). It is designed to use inspection to do an intuitive step, in order to get to algorithmic steps as quickly as possible.
In 2021, I learned about the 4-dimensional Rubik's Cube. It took me a week to solve it by following a written guide online. Since then I have held several speedsolving world records, helped create the hypercubing.xyz wiki, solved the 5D and 6D cubes, and fostered the community on the Discord server.
