Biography
Carissa has been playing mah jongg since 2019 and enjoys sharing the game with others in a welcoming, supportive setting. What began as a personal interest soon became a favorite family tradition, especially during time spent together at the lake. Over the years, she has taught many members of her family and extended family how to play, turning mah jongg into a cherished part of their gatherings.
Carissa is passionate about creating spaces where players can learn the game, build confidence, and enjoy meaningful time together around the table.
