Maya's hobbies are equally diverse and exciting. She is an avid social dancer, enjoying salsa, bachata, kizomba, and merengue.

In addition to her creative pursuits, Maya has a strong athletic background. She was a former acrobatics coach at XMA North Hollywood and has experience in fight choreography and stunts. Her love of adventure extends to outdoor activities like skeet shooting, white water rafting, and firing firearms at gun ranges.
Despite her many accomplishments, Maya is not without her fears and challenges. She has a moderate fear of heights, which she has worked to overcome through her experiences. She also lives with a non-obvious disability that impacts her daily life, but she remains determined to make every day count.
Maya's love of travel is another defining characteristic. She strives to visit new countries every two years, with highlights including the 2016 Olympics in Rio, a month-long trip to Thailand, and two weeks exploring Madrid.

In her personal life, Maya values kindness and has a strong sense of family. Her favorite holiday is Christmas, which she celebrates with thoughtful gifts and festive decorations. Her favorite color is green, which reminds her of nature, and her favorite flower is the lily due to its sweet fragrance. She is a lover of cookies, particularly chocolate chip, and enjoys baking and cooking for her loved ones.
Maya's fitness routine is focused on Peloton workouts, which she enjoys for their variety and convenience. She values whole food, plant-based meals and tries to eat healthy most of the time, but does indulge in her favorite treats like ice cream and donuts. Her favorite workouts are yoga, stretching, weights, and Pilates, which she finds more enjoyable than HIIT and cardio.
