Kathy & Mariah

Palm Springs, California
Kathy, 34, ER Trauma Nurse and DJ
Mariah, 48, Producer, The Dinah

Kathy and Mariah are both in the entertainment industry and met when Mariah hired Kathy to DJ a gig. “I thought Kathy was beautiful, and I loved that she was a nurse. We didn’t date right away, but Kathy was a great DJ so I hired her again and again. Dating still wasn’t on my mind but after a few months of spending more and more time together, it just sort of happened,” says Mariah. “I was new to Los Angeles and still trying to figure things out. We talked a lot and as we got to know each other, we realized we liked all the same things: country music, golf, hiking and cooking. Next thing I knew, I couldn’t get her off my mind. We complement each other and we talk through everything. And laughing keeps us together.”
