I build creative experiences for cyber startups, from “so it’s just another X?” to “so that’s what you do!” Why explain it when you can show it?

I was the kid who got bored before the explanation ended. I was always inventing something. Tech is boring, I want to make art. So I did. And when nobody noticed, I put it on walls. The galleries, on the other hand, weren’t waiting for me. So I learned to build it myself. Turns out I like building things that work. I ended up in cybersecurity, writing code, then running the product. And every customer call went the same way: “so it’s basically a scanner?” The tech was never the problem, the story around it was. So I went back to the notebook.

Here’s what I actually do: first, I go inside. I read your code, your docs, your customer calls. I find the thing you’re too deep in to see. Then I build what shows it, inside your brand, with your team. Nothing you already have gets replaced. Next time someone asks what you do, you show them.

What do people keep comparing you to? Tell me, and let’s talk. Book 30 minutes. Find me on LinkedIn, Instagram or email.

Hi, I’m Maya.

I build creative experiences for cyber startups

from “so it’s just another X?”
to “so that’s what you do!”

Why explain it when you can show it?

Before I tell your story, scroll through mine.

I was the kid who got bored before the explanation ended.

I was always inventing something.

So I did.

And when nobody noticed, I put it on walls.

The galleries, on the other hand, weren’t waiting for me.

Getting it seen wasn’t.

So I learned to build it myself.

Turns out I like building things that work.

I ended up in cybersecurity, writing code.
Then running the product.

Then I became a product manager.

And every customer call went the same way:
“so it’s basically a scanner?”

The tech was never the problem.
The story around it was.

So I went back to the notebook.

Here’s what I actually do.

First, I go inside.
I read your code, your docs, your customer calls.

I find the thing you’re too deep in to see.

Then I build what shows it.
Inside your brand, with your team.

Next time someone asks what you do,
you show them.

What do people keep comparing you to?

Tell me, and let’s talk.

Type it. I’ll tell you what I’d do with it.

Good one. Let’s find the thing they’re not getting.

So it’s basically a scanner?
Isn’t that what our EDR already does?
So… a firewall for AI?
So it’s basically a scanner?
Like a firewall, right?
Isn’t that what our EDR does?
