Hi! My name is Maya Quetzali (pronounced ket-ZAH-lee) Gonzalez.

I am a director and choreographer. I tell stories by and for and with other global majority people. I structure my rehearsal processes the way I wish the rest of the world was structured, prioritizing generosity and collaboration. 

I am a proud arts worker. I currently serve as the Program Associate for the MAP Fund, working toward more equitable grantmaking practices.  

I am an organizer with the Sunrise Movement, among others.

I am a 2020 graduate of New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, where I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Drama and a minor in producing. I attended NYU as a Martin Luther King, Jr. Scholar. 

I send love and gratitude to my community. 

I make my home in New York City and Texas' Third Congressional District. I use she/her pronouns. I'm Mexican-American. I live with the mobility impairment of SI joint dysfunction.
