Maya is a teacher, artist, and multi-crime survivor from Los Angeles. After finishing her undergraduate degree in Spanish in 1996 (at the age of 22), Maya found herself seeking direction. But it was only a couple months after her graduation that she experienced a life-changing armed robbery. Not long after that, she would travel to Argentina and forge a new life for herself far from the San Fernando Valley. However, she would be faced with even more tumult and trauma when financial, political, and socioeconomic crises in her new home increased crime rates, exposing her to the harsh reality of a nation’s unrest. The Broken Cycle Media team is so grateful Maya was willing to share all that came next for her as a her multi-crime survivor, and Amy is especially, personally grateful for her because she’s one of Amy's best friends and cousin.
