Maya has been working in higher education for over 26 years, 15 of which were teaching as an adult educator and 10 in research and publications, and all throughout working concurrently as a unit or programme manager. She has experienced higher education in different country-contexts, such as the Philippines, Malaysia, Australia and New Zealand. 

 

Her published works are in the area of higher education leadership and management, community engagement and development and international education. She is regularly invited to review articles from high impact international journals on education and is occasionally invited to collaborate with scholars from different fields of discipline.

 

Her present role in TCI is encouraging her to explore possible studies in Catholic and pastoral leadership.

Since 2010 Maya holds an Honorary Fellowship with the Australian Catholic University.
