Who is Naila?
Naila is an epidemiologist by profession, a board-game addict by choice, and a mahjong lover by discovery.
When she first decided to play mahjong, it was just to give her brain a new challenge; and before she knew it, she was hooked! Nearly a year later, Naila can’t imagine a week without playing mahjong.
Naila thought of starting Mahjong Mates to share the little things she wished she had known when she first began, thus skipping the confusion, the frustration and simply dive straight into clear waters (btw Naila loves scuba diving too).
“I hope that this space helps new players find clarity, confidence as well as a lasting community. May this game bring you as much joy (and a few new mates!) as it has brought me. 🌸 Naila, Oct 2025
