Hey there! I’m Maya, and I started acting in 8th grade when Tim Wright cast me as Haydee Sanabria in Annie Thom’s play, With Their Eyes. Tim was a fantastic teacher and incredible human, who had a significant impact on me. After high school, I attended CalArts, graduating with a BFA in theatre. I also studied at the British American Drama Academy in Oxford. I highly recommend Pimm’s #6 if you ever find yourself at a bar in Oxford.
Hey everyone! I’m touching base to let you know about my latest project — since the fires in Los Angeles, I have been drawing houses lost to the fires. You can find more information about my LOST HOME PROJECT here, and if you or anyone you know lost their home in the Palisades or Altadena, please reach out to me. I also did my first Podcast interview with Steve Silverman on his excellent World Gone Good Podcast about the project.
BIG NEWS! I am thrilled to report that I have signed with the PETER KALLINTERIS AGENCY! Peter and his team are an amazing group of professionals and I am looking forward to working with them!
I just finished a really fun and intense film, Click Boom Click, with director Johnny Yong Bosch! I’ll let you know as soon as it is out — you can see me fight off the bad guys!
You can catch me in this commercial called “Dinner.”
You can see me in Discovery ID’s Man With a Van, and the lovely independent feature, Wild Prairie Rose, streaming on Peacock, Plex, Roku, Tubi, Vudu, and Amazon.
During the covid lockdown, I took myself on a 48-state solo van trip. You can catch my adventure on my TikTok.
