Hello, my name is Mariah! I’m an author, EMT, and mom living in sunny San Diego, where "Yay!" is my favorite word and a reflection of my positive outlook on life. I recently published my memoir, The Dragon In You, which captures the first 32 years of my journey through love, loss, and the rediscovery of faith. Growing up in the Mormon Church, my life took a profound turn when I began dating my husband, a dedicated military man who served for 14 years. Our life together was marked by his struggle with PTSD and addiction, a battle that deeply affected our family. I stayed by his side as long as I could, but when my physical safety was at risk, I made the heart-wrenching decision to leave. Even then, I continued to advocate for him from a distance. Tragically, he passed away in 2021, leaving behind our two children and a legacy of resilience that I now share through my writing. My memoir also delves into my spiritual journey—leaving the Mormon Church, wrestling with my faith, and ultimately finding my way back to a renewed sense of spirituality. Through my writing, I hope to connect with others who have faced similar struggles and to offer a message of hope and empowerment. In addition to my work as an author, I have been an EMT since 2010, serving both in San Diego and Las Vegas. My career has taken me from the fast-paced world of ambulance work to the excitement of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, and I’ve provided care at various special events across the region. As I continue to grow as a writer, my goal is to reach more people, share my experiences, and inspire others to find the strength within themselves—the dragon in them—to overcome life’s challenges.
