Welcome!

I'm so excited to bring more mah jongg to folks in the Asheville area. Because who doesn't want more mah jongg?!

I've been playing NMJL (National Mah Jongg League) style for the past fifteen years and have had the pleasure to teach dozens and dozens of people the game I love.

I grew up in Southern California and then spent 30 years in Chicago. My husband and I moved to Asheville six years ago and have loved every minute of it (well, maybe not the pandemic or Hurricane Helene times!) 

Mountain Mahj AVL launched in Fall of 2025  with game play at French Broad River Brewery. 

Stay tuned to find out when the Winter 2026 League will begin!
