Hi, I’m Maija. (Pronounce it however you’d like.)

I’ve lived many lives in my 18,000+ days on this planet.

I’ve been a single teen mom, journalist, actor, producer, storyteller, comedian, and explorer of some of life’s biggest questions.

For a long time, I wondered how all those different paths fit together.

Now I’m beginning to realize they were never separate at all.

This isn’t a website about one career or one passion. It’s where all the different parts of my life come together.

If you’re looking for my acting, journalism, creative projects, Baby Yeti, or anything else, you’ll find the links below.

As for me…

I’m learning that maybe the thing I’m best at…

…is simply being me.

I’m still figuring out exactly what that means.

Because living on this planet…

…it’s a little weird, right?

Let’s talk about it.
