Mariah. has been singing since the age of 5. The Church Choir, talent shows, school plays, and Mom’s rigid vocal coaching were the bedrock of Mariah’s initial training. Born Mariah Dawn’e Hester in Shreveport, LA, she is an ‘old soul’ and animal lover with a flare for the arts- to include public speaking, painting, pottery, and dance. Strong in her faith in God, this NICU Nurse and proud member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Incorporated continued to sing and perform while pursuing her degree and serving in multiple roles. She’s also a prolific songwriter: as demonstrated in her Sophomore release- ‘Bizness’, produced by Sara G and Mike G. Mariah. is signed to University Park Records based out of Shreveport, La.

“Never settle for less than because He created you for more…” Mariah.
