Athletes in Action

Faith is the foundation of maya’s life & she’s involved with several faith based charities.

Since her involvement on campus at UCONN, Maya has been a strong supporter of the AIA and believes that sport has the unique power to open  doors and create connections in a way that few others things can. Ultimately, AIA’s goal is to see peoples’ lives changed as they discover God’s purpose for their life and Maya is thrilled to continue her work in support of the mission.
