I teach mahjong, run a league called Tiles With Trish based in Hampton Roads, Virginia, and spend a lot of my time helping people fall in love with the game the way that I did. That looks like weekly sessions in my living room (which was mostly unused until I decided to turn it into my very own mahjong salon).  Sourcing tablescapes and accessories for my clients is one of my favorite things to do and lately I've been helping mahjong enthusiasts start their very own leagues from scratch.  

I'm also a Life Coach, which feels like a natural extension of everything else I do. So much of my work, on and off the mahjong table, comes back to helping people be more intentional with their time, their spaces, and their attention. I write about all of it in my Substack, "Life's Little Things," where I share thoughts on intentional living, travel, art, books, gardening and the little things, because that's where the good stuff usually lives.

At home, you'll find my husband, our two kids, one very bossy corgi, one super sweet doodle, and my bird Ari (who is of course my original Bam Bird).

What's next? I'm dreaming up a line of mahjong mats, since I think of them as art you can play on.  More on that soon.

In the meantime, I'm just trying to do my best.  I'm so glad that you're here.
