ABOUT
Hi, I’m Mariah! I’m a Personal Historian and lover of stories. Unassuming Collective was born out of my drive to explore the deeper side of life and the human experience by asking strangers on the street if they would be open to sharing their stories with me.
I was amazed at how many folks responded with excitement and an eagerness to tell me about their colorful life. I decided to capture these stories by creating a podcast and hosting storytelling open mics at local coffee shops in Long Beach, CA and eventually by offering story-recording services to individuals and families.
I love holding a safe space for folks to be vulnerable and share memories that are precious to them and priceless to their families. With every interview, I’m grateful to be able to preserve unique voices and tales that deserve to be kept close and cherished. I feel deeply touched by my clients’ openness, honesty and perspective.
If you’re considering having your story recorded, please don’t hesitate to reach out with questions. I welcome a conversation with you with open arms.
