About Me
Hello and welcome!
My name is Mariah Sturdivant
and I am so glad that you are
interested in my website. I am
from Chicago, Il, and I am the
youngest of six children. I have
many years of experience with
writing and I hope to share my
work through this website.
My mission is to share my
experiences with other creatives,
build a community, and lastly,
create an outlet where people
can freely express themselves.
College
I am a recent graduate of Valparaiso University in Valparaiso, IN. I studied Creative Writing and after so many years of doing the thing that I love the most, I have a Bachelor's Degree in Creative Writing. I studied Creative Writing because I have loved reading and writing ever since I was a little girl. I always had my nose in a book and even got books for Christmas sometimes. Hopefully, in the future, I plan on being a journalist and would love to have my work published somewhere for the world to see! I recently my Master's in Creative Writing at Roosevelt University in Chicago.
Swimming
I have been swimming since I was about seven years old and I was lucky enough to take my swimming career to the collegiate level. Finishing my swimming career was a big accomplishment and finishing my swimming career as an NCAA Divison I swimmer was an even bigger one. Swimming is a chapter of a book that I am so proud of closing!
