About Maia
Bio
I’m a Junior in the Global Ecology Program at Poolesville High School. I wanted to be a part of this event because it was a unique opportunity for me to safely expand beyond my comfort zone. As I have never been on the organizing side of an event before, I decided (a bit nervously) that I would take this opportunity to try something new and see what happens!
Surprisingly, something that is within my comfort zone is doing backflips on a four inch piece of wood and swinging around a set of uneven bars. I’m a Level 10 gymnast at Hills Gymnastics and yes, before you ask, I can do a cartwheel. Outside of gymnastics, in the my free time, you’ll find me either inside with a hot coffee, my bullet journal, my crochet projects, and possibly one of the seven Harry Potter books; out on a long family hike or bike ride; or just chillin’ in my kitchen listening to some tunes and making a chocolate cake.
