She auditioned for The Holland College Performing Arts Dance Program and after years she saw her hard work paid off as Mariah is now a graduate of the Holland College Performing Arts Dance Program. In 2015 Mariah felt the need to make her dancing more styled to her; Her answer was circus. Mariah is currently studying at Atlantic Cirque in the pre-professional circus program.
