Maliyah Mason is a multi-talented musician, actress, and advocate hailing from Compton, CA. Her journey into the world of music began in 2008 when she joined her middle school band and picked up the trumpet and clarinet. As she honed her skills, Maliyah's passion for music grew, leading her to switch to the French Horn during her sophomore year of high school.
In 2013-14, Maliyah achieved a significant milestone in her life when she was elected as the first black female drum major of Millikan High, a testament to her talent, leadership, and determination.
After high school, she pursued her love for storytelling and enrolled in California State University Long Beach, where she studied Screenwriting. During her junior year in college, Maliyah unexpectedly entered her very first pageant and emerged victorious, earning the prestigious title of Miss Compton 2017.
During her reign as Miss Compton, Maliyah used her platform to promote the importance of music education for the youth of Compton. She collaborated with the House of Blues to secure musical instrument donations for the students of Dominguez High School and organized opportunities for them to attend concerts by artists like Black Violin, further exposing them to the power of music.
Following her college graduation, Maliyah embarked on a fulfilling journey as a Reading, Writing, and Comprehension tutor while pursuing her dreams in the entertainment industry. Part-time auditions led to her securing roles in commercials, including a spot with Sonic Burgers and a commercial produced by the Fine Bros for Hershey's.
In a remarkable turn of events, Maliyah's career continued to soar as she embraced her passion for acting and advocacy. She now serves as the host of the MelaninFlix TV show "Veganish," a platform where she spreads awareness about the benefits of veganism. The show, directed by the talented Jay Gerren and produced by Coledias Wilson, allows her to make a positive impact on both the community and the environment, showcasing her dedication to meaningful causes.

Tamara Fowler has dedicated her career to babies, children, and their families. As Founder and CEO of Wiggle Giggle Playtorium, this indoor playground and event venue is just the latest of her pursuits to help children develop, and to support their families. With Bachelor's degrees in Biology and Nursing, and a Master's in Secondary Education, Tamara has done everything from teaching high school Chemistry and Physics, to Nursing in Labor and Delivery, and Fertility and Family Planning. As a wife and mom to a 3 year old, when she created Wiggle Giggle, Tamara did so with a vision of kids learning, growing, and playing all day, and parents in Marietta, Georgia having a safe place for their children to explore.
Raised in Roswell, Georgia, Tamara was a student athlete in high school and attended Spring Hill College on a basketball scholarship. She also coached various sports when she taught at Stone Mountain High School, and was a leader for Black Girls Run in its early days. Thus, she knows first hand that children learn more than techniques of a game and use of motor skills through play. They're being exposed to community building, networking, empowerment, and mutual support in the time they spend interacting with newfound friends. Moreover, parents benefit from the same thing. While their kids imagine-up big adventures, they're exchanging stories and tips, and finding people who understand their lived experiences as parents.
When Tamara and her partner returned to Georgia with an almost 2 year old, after spending 7 years away, living in California, Virginia, and then Maryland respectively during that time, these were the things they sought out. They would drive for miles, exploring places where their daughter could practice using her courage and social skills, and parents could engage in dialogue with one another, which meant they spent a lot of time commuting with a toddler. With Wiggle Giggle as the only indoor playground within a 10 mile radius, Tamara recognized and seized the opportunity to fill this need other parents in her immediate area seemed to share. With party bookings taking place before Wiggle Giggle’s doors were opened by neighbors and classmates from their daughter’s school, attendance of over 400 people at the facility’s grand opening, a collaborative partnership with Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, private event reservations from her Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. members, local public figures, and more, Wiggle Giggle has received an outpouring of support, the Fowler family is overwhelmed with gratitude for being embraced by the community.
