ABOUT MARIAMA

Mariama is a well-rounded performer who loves acting, singing and dancing. She made her professional debut in Once on This Island’s first National tour in 2019 and her Broadway debut in The Lion King in 2022.

She is a social activist and committed to making the world a better place. She has spoken at the United Nations for their Girls in Science and Girl Power conventions. She was a nationally ranked chess player when she was younger (fun fact her first trip to Disney World was for an Elementary School Chess Nationals Tournament) and also enjoys debate. She has a passion for social justice and loves historical musicals - especially Hamilton, Six and 1776! She is also a published author and a proud New Yorker.
