About Me

Namaste! I'm Maya, a UX designer on a mission to create digital experiences that bring joy and simplicity to people's lives. Originally from Montreal, I've been exploring the intersection of technology and mindfulness while traveling through Asia.

My design philosophy is deeply influenced by my meditation practice and yoga journey. I believe that good design, like good meditation, should feel effortless and natural. I specialize in user research, interaction design, and design systems, with a particular passion for wellness and sustainability-focused products.
