Meet the Instructor

Hi, I’m Christine, the mahjong enthusiast behind Sparrow & Dragon. I learned to play mahjong in May 2025 and immediately knew that I wanted to share this game with everyone in my life. By fall 2025, I had taught my husband, elementary-aged children, my mom, my college friends, and pretty much anyone who sat near me for too long.

I started an Instagram creator page as an outlet for my love of all things mahjong, and the more I shared my favorite tile sets and accessories, the more I wanted to get more involved in the mahjong community! I now play in leagues and tournaments whenever I can and I’m excited to be teaching in a formal setting.

I am so glad you’re here, whether you have only just learned about mahjong and are wondering what it’s all about or whether you’re an experienced player looking for more open play opportunities. Let me know how I can help, and let’s mahj on!
