Meet Missy Mahjong

Missy loves a good tabletop game. As a teenager, she was the girl begging everyone to play a game of scrabble or euchre on a Saturday night. Not much has changed since. She dabbled in pickleball and some other games, but she always finds herself back at the game table.

 

in 2024, Missy moved to Nashville from Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. Before that, she had been living in Boulder, Colorado and Chicago's Gold Coast. After moving around so much, she realized the best way to make new friends as an adult is through face-to-face connection and games.
​

Missy appreciates the power of a good table game to bring people together.

 

The constant asks for her to teach mahjong new players, Missy embraced the need for mahjong instructors and open play hosts and dove right in. She studied every book she could get her hands on. Missy completed the Oh My Mahjong Teacher Certification in the summer of 2024.

​

Missy Mahjong taught the official NMJL rules as a standard and loved to sprinkle in a few modern table rules and style. After all, this game is supposed to be fun!

​

In January 2025, Missy started the famous Missy Mahjong social clubs which provided free lessons and play. Connections and deep friendships were made. 

​

In July 2026, Missy Mahjong pivoted to focus on her popular NEWSletter. Missy Mahjong is now more than a game instructor and event host.

 

The thousands of subscribers to the NEWSletter were brought together by mahjong, but all shared the common mission to build community and raise money for charities.

 

This mission has been consistent and propelled the NEWSletter to cover a broader message of living a purposeful and playful life, no matter what city you live in.
