About

Hi, I'm Maya

Welcome to my nook on the interwebs.


About me:


Admittedly something of a cultural chameleon, I grew up in Geneva, Switzerland to international parents and eventually made my way to Perth, Australia and currently now in Brisbane. I started out studying veterinary science before swapping to Molecular Biology, after which I still didn't really know 'what to do with my life'.


At this point I stumbled into the field of geographic information science after remembering how much I enjoyed a project I did in school on urban heat islands, and felt like I'd been given a secret map to so much of life's mysteries. I came to appreciate how special spatial is, and depths of meaning a spatial perspective can provide in so many aspects of life.


After a period of time navigating this space, the yearn for learning and discovering new horizons relit a fire for change and I was lucky enough to succeed in getting a spot in the She Codes Plus program. It has been a transformational experience and I'm beyond excited to see where my path takes me next.


When I'm not tinkering with anything at a computer, you'll likely find me out riding my bicycle exploring and adventuring, helping others learn to ride, or enjoying a good coffee and indulging my sweet tooth somewhere.
