About Me

Hi, I'm Maya!

I'm a UX researcher based in Montreal, passionate about giving users a voice and turning their feedback into insights that lead to meaningful improvements. I love being the bridge between users and stakeholders, making sure feedback is not just heard, but acted on in ways that make experiences better.

My journey in UX has been a mix of differing industries and products. I've worked most recently at Eidos Montréal in the video game industry, running usability and appreciation tests that helped shape immersive experiences. I've also worked in market research at a consulting firm, in AI and in a UX research lab!

Academically, I have a Master's in UX from HEC Montréal and a Bachelor's in Psychology from McGill University, which helped me combine research rigor with an understanding of human behavior.

Outside of work, I'm a proud cat owner/master to my cat Liara 🐈, and a lover of both hunting for antique treasures and playing video games, somehow making me a bit of a grandma and a teenager at the same time - no shame! I also enjoy exploring new coffee joints around the city and trying every interesting brew I can find! ☕
