About Maya
Bit about me: I'm a Sagittarius, I'm 26, and I am currently the Associate Editor at Document Journal. I've had experience writing for publications like Office Magazine, PAPER Magazine, COMPLEX, and The Whitney Review.
Degrees: I hold a BA from New York University in Fashion Critical Theory and Creative Writing with a Minor in Journalism, as well as an MA from Columbia University in Film and Media Studies for my thesis on deepfakes and mockumentary theory.
Fun Facts: my favorite color is green, I play two instruments, and I used to be a champion synchronized swimmer. Writing is my favorite thing to do.

- I approach writing from a "you gotta master the rules to break them" style - we will learn structure first, and then build strategies for writing compelling essays, stories, think pieces, you name it!
HOW IT WORKS: you bring the writing, I help you make it work. In addition to line editing your piece with you, I can also help develop the concepts behind the piece before you even start writing!
SERVICES:
- Building a specialized writing structure tailored to your work style and goals (ie. flashcards, written outlines, voice memos...we will figure out what's best for you together!)
- Work on constructing engaging thesis statements, arguments, or log lines depending on project
- Workshop creative choices in writing
- Provide line edits as well as hands-on revisions for existing pieces
- Tailored exercises to work on finding your unique voice as a writer
- Conducting and organizing research and sources
***Should you be a journalist or aspiring journalist, I can also share tips on how to pitch to and write for publications.
WHO THESE SESSIONS ARE FOR:

Maya has been an amazing and extremely helpful writing mentor for me throughout undergrad and graduate school. She has provided thoughtful feedback that has helped me discover and refine my writing style. I greatly admire her strengths in both creative and academic writing, and how she is able to help others improve their writing skills.
Maya has really improved my writing organizational skills along with reteaching me rhetoric 101 and more. She's super sweet yet critical and has a plethora of fun essays/writers under her belt that we analyzed during our sessions.
