Maya is a Clinical Research Coordinator and Substance Use Navigator at CAMP. Her interest in substance use started when she joined a clinical psychology lab in college that focused on the neural and behavioral mechanisms of substance use. She then spent a summer working in the emergency department at Bellevue Hospital in New York City, where she advocated and helped many patients with substance use who were also unhoused. She has conducted her own research on barriers to SUD treatment for people who are unhoused, with a specific emphasis on how homelessness impacts an individual’s access to and engagement with treatment. She is passionate about harm reduction education, patient advocacy, and community-based research. In her free time, she enjoys reading, playing tennis, and trying new restaurants with friends and family.
