In Maya's words: I was born and raised in Northern California. I am Filipina, pops is Pangasinan & my moms is from Davao City. I’m a current grad student in nursing and have really found my love of integrating wellness into healthcare. I’ve found that I want to explore the connection of mind, body, & soul in health. All aspects of my life, from growing up with my family, eating the foods my dad makes, to working with my mom at her spa, I’ve more recently been looking at what it means to heal while becoming a healer. My current fellowship project is with a mental health organization to promote wellness practices for healthcare students.
I also love the fact that we have the opportunity of connecting with others through culture, so I am adventuring through travel and language learning! As a healthcare provider my goal is to provide a holistic approach to care. I look forward to continue seeing what the world can teach us.
