A bit about me

A senior software engineer who made the switch from economics to tech 15 years ago

Hi there, my name is Maya, an experienced software developer with a blend of an MBA, M.Sc in Computer Science, and a BA in Economics. Specializing in the web and cloud development in the last 10+ years, my skills stretch across TypeScript, Vue, React, CSS, C# and much more.

Currently I am working as a Senior Software Engineer at Microsoft, where I am responsible for leading and developing accessible cloud & AI applications.

From coding to speaking and writing

Beyond coding, speaking and blogging has been my way to get out of my comfort zone and share my knowledge to the community. I have spoken at various international large conferences, including Vue Amsterdam, JSNation, ReactNext, and more.

My topics range from web development, UX/UI, Accessibility, coding standards, and lately AI development.

I am also a published O'Reilly book author, with my latest book - Learning Vue - a comprehensive guide to building web applications with Vue 3 and TypeScript.

Open the open-source door and travel the world

I love Open Source (OSS)! I have been contributing to OSS as a core maintainer of StorefrontUI 1.x, creator of Colors Generator, and a contributor to different OSS projects.

Being Google Developer Expert (GDE), and Cloudinary Ambassador, I advocate for Web technologies, UX/UI tools and performance, and cultivate the Vue Israel community meetups with my co-organizers.

Between coding and speaking, I keep myself inspired by exploring new culture whenever I travel.

And the journey continues...

I was featured in Women In STEM campaign, organized by 1 Million Women in STEM. It was always an honor to inspire other women and girls to pursue their dreams in STEM.

Recently I am focusing more in full-stack and AI app development. I'm also planning my own Youtube Channel, and possibly a podcast or a course, as another way to share my tech journey with the community.

In my free time, I enjoy illustrating cute characters and spending time with my three little kids. It's a busy life, but I can't wait to see where I'm heading next!
