Amanda is a devoted Mahjong enthusiast whose love for the game began the moment her sister taught her how to play. That early spark grew quickly, inspiring her to teach her own family—and now, nightly Mahjong games are a cherished part of their routine. What started as a simple introduction has become a true passion rooted in strategy, connection, and shared joy.

Amanda is a partner in Blooming Bams Mahjong alongside Andrea Fannin in Springfield, Missouri. Together, they teach with warmth, patience, and a genuine excitement for helping new and returning players grow. Their shared mission is to strengthen players’ skills, build confidence, and welcome more people into the vibrant Mahjong community they both love.

A wife, mother, and lifelong learner, Amanda believes Mahjong is more than a pastime—it’s a way to foster friendships, create meaningful moments, and bring people together. She looks forward to sharing the table with anyone ready to learn, laugh, and fall in love with the tiles.
