TILES of Women




What is TILES?

TILES of Women is a website that inspires, motivates and provides self-discovery of women especially through the game of Scrabble. TILES stands for Transformation, Inspiration, Leadership, Empowerment, and Success. Our mission is to promote self-confidence and purposefulness among women of all ages through Scrabble.




My Story


Before Scrabble, a mindset of insignificance induced by early imposed stigmas caused me to be withdrawn and feel purposeless. After attending my first international tournament and witnessing how Scrabble united players from all over the globe, I felt a true sense of community that I always wanted to be surrounded by. Through persistence in the game for now approaching 11 years, and meeting like-minded women navigating a game dominated by men, I grew in confidence and assurance in my actions.


Starting T.I.L.E.S. has been my persistent desire, and I am glad to use Scrabble to empower many females, as it did for me.
