Why Should You Trust Me To Be Your Mahjong Mentor?
Hi, I’m Gaia - the face behind Master Your Mahjong and your go-to guide for learning this beautiful game with ease and joy.
Mahjong first hooked me before 2020, and what began as curiosity quickly became a lifeline for laughter and connection.
But as I started teaching, I saw the same thing over and over: Beginners felt overwhelmed.
Too many rules. Too much jargon. Not enough clarity or support.
So I created Mahjong Made Simple - my signature learning method built on clear steps, simple explanations, and a whole lot of encouragement. No stress, no judgment, just genuine “aha!” moments.
Fast-forward to today:
Founding Member of The Mahj Life Instructors Guild & Certified American Mahjong instructor

My superpower? Making new players feel calm, capable, and excited - even if they’ve never touched a tile before.
Whether we’re in St. Petersburg, Tampa, or meeting virtually, my mission is clear:
Help you discover Mahjong as a joyful, social hobby that builds confidence, community, and lifelong friendships.
