“I came to Maya after completing a rebrand in stages—new messaging, new offer, and a lot of moving parts that weren’t quite cohering. She brought clarity and creativity, helping me surface the deeper brand challenge at hand and giving me a path to that coherence I was craving. The way she thinks is super strategic, but also deeply intuitive. And honestly, I just really enjoyed the process—she made everything feel grounded and collaborative.
A total delight!”
— Samara Bay, Author, Speech Coach, Professor
