About Maya

Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area but I now currently reside in Los Angeles after attending UCLA. Dance was where I first fell in love with storytelling as it was my first passion since the age of two. Through life's twist and turns, I have found myself with skills that align with acting, writing, and the development of scripts. I am immensely dedicated to growth and believe in always being a student in life and your career. I am passionate, persistent, and thrive when collaborating with like minded individuals. I aspire to impact over influence and to flow over force. Creating isn't just a desire for me but rather a necessity to my very existence. Don't be fooled by my purpose driven ethos, I am still a bulldog who is all about handling the business.
