Maia was born in Qingyuan, China and raised in small-town Peckville, Pennsylvania. She majored in biological sciences and health professions with a minor in human development and family studies at The Pennsylvania State University. During her time there, she discovered her passion for global health and volunteered in several non-profit mobile medical clinics abroad in Panama, Nicaragua, and Honduras. She then went on to attend Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine where she furthered her interests and decided on pursuing neurology after working with strong female physicians in the field. She was thrilled to have matched at UCLA Neurology and completed her medicine internship at their county hospital, Olive View - UCLA Medical Center. She is excited to continue her medical training and foster her passions for global health, women's neurology, and inclusive excellence for both patients and health care professionals. Outside of medicine, she enjoys journaling, cooking and discovering new food scenes in LA with her husband, Ryan, as well as watching Kdramas and Kpop videos while cuddling with her dog, Zara.
