Growth is never accidental.
She grew up between Thailand and India, in a family where dinner was indistinguishable from an operations meeting. That taught her something early: somebody builds the growth, usually in the unglamorous hours.
Today that is the job. Cleaning up the data. Fixing the handoffs. Coaching the people who have to live inside the systems she designs. The receipts are below. The one she is proudest of has no revenue attached to it.
01
FIVE CITIES, FIVE LESSONS
01
THAILAND
where she learned a family business is a full-contact sport.
02
MUMBAI
where she learned a well-argued document can move a government.
03
LOS ANGELES
where sociology taught her to look for the system behind the behavior.
04
NEW YORK
where she learned what excellence at scale looks like, from a desk outside the CEO's door.
05
ATLANTA
where she transitioned from supporting other people's growth to building it.
02
WHAT SHE BELIEVES
CLARITY IS KINDNESS — She would rather have the awkward conversation on Tuesday than the crisis on Friday.
​
SYSTEMS OVER HEROICS — If it only works when the best person is in the room, it doesn't work.
​
DO THE BORING PART WELL — Nobody gets a standing ovation for clean data. She cleans it anyway.
​
PEOPLE BEFORE PROCESS, NOT INSTEAD OF IT — A process nobody was consulted on is a suggestion with extra steps.
​
LEAVE IT BETTER THAN YOU FOUND IT — Eighteen years of it so far, with no title attached.
03

WORKING WITH HER
"It's about getting in the trenches with those that you are leading and seeing them to the other side... A 6 out of 5 type coaching effort."
​
CSAT survey, 5 of 5, May 2022
"I love the way Maya breaks down the goals and overall picture into easy to digest pictures... I really feel like I have a great plan and am ready for the next year."
​
NPS survey, 10 of 10, Sept 2023
"She got my team members talking in public about sensitive issues, which is very challenging. She did it with ease and very naturally."
​
NPS survey, 10 of 10, Aug 2023
Verbatim responses from client satisfaction and net promoter surveys, 2022 to 2023.
05
OFF THE CLOCK
Atlanta by choice. Thailand and India by upbringing.
Volunteer days that usually involve a shovel and worse shoes than she planned for.
A habit of ordering too much food and insisting that everyone share it.
An eyeglass program she has quietly kept running since she was a teenager.
06
SAY HELLO
If your growth is outpacing the systems holding it up, that is her favorite conversation to have.
The messy version is welcome. She would rather see the real thing than the tidy version of it.
Everything that comes in gets read, and answered.
