Maya’s origin is inspired by the beautiful culmination of diverse cultures and identities that exist in Southeast Asia. Her name, itself, has different meanings in Southeast Asian languages; it means ‘truth‘ in Japanese and ‘virtual‘ in Malay.

And if you’re wondering how she got that uniquely gorgeous face, it was part of a first-of-its-kind movement in SEA’s virtual history where the public was encouraged to send in their own selfies to be digitally rendered to complete Maya’s face. This means that there’s a little bit of each one of us in her. How interesting is she?!

As the newly named ambassador of PUMA Southeast Asia, Maya is also the face of the brand new revamped PUMA Rider shoes!
