Carol Weinfeld,

Carol met Sara in 2022 while taking the Mahj Club Beginner Series. She continued playing weekly, teaching her family and friends, and taking every opportunity to be at the table. As Mahj Club grew, Sara trained Carol in the Mahj Club Method, and now she’s Mah Jongg obsessed too! With decades of experience in education, teaching Mah Jongg has become the perfect blend of her passions.
