Fun facts about Maya:

1. Florida is the sixth state I've lived in (after CO, CA, IL, NM, and CT). I moved here for graduate school in 2020, but New England will always have my heart. 

​

2. I'm a fan of fandom- music, movies (especially horror), musicals, fantasy novels, collectible knick-knacks; the list goes on and on.

​

3. I'm a proud cat mom, but I love animals of all shapes and sizes (in fact, before I knew I wanted to be a psychotherapist, my dream job was "horse").
