          From a very young age, Maya was always surrounded by various forms of artistic expression. With her father as a Professional DJ and mother as a Professional dancer and educator, naturally she was drawn to music, dance and martial arts. By the age of 14 she received her black belt in Okinawan Goju-Ryu, a traditional Japanese style.
​
Maya continued her dance training with the New York Academy of Ballet, Kozmic Edge and NEXUS Dance Convention assisting top industry choreographers as an Elite protégé. Currently signed to Clear Talent Group, Maya has been blessed with several opportunities & performances which have included: Black Girls Rock Award Show, NIKE New York Fashion Week, SMILF on SHOWTIME, Madonna, NIKE commercial with Kyrie Irving, GEICO, Jimmy Fallon, MAC Cosmetics, Desigual New York Fashion Week, Youthful Faces directed by Michael Perry and more. Grateful for all the blessings that have come her way, the most rewarding gift for her is to continue growing as an artist & inspiring others to achieve anything they set their mind to.
