Her academic background includes art theory and design, design futures, interactive media and public leadership.

She currently acts as a steward of FoAM's trans-local network. Maja’s particular approach to people and technology has been recognised by the MIT's Technology Review and the World Economic Forum, awarding her the titles of Top 100 Young Innovator and Young Global Leader. Maja spends most of her time in between fields and cultures, on the lookout for emergent patters of change. She is intrigued by transitions and moments when time stands still - peak experiences, rituals and convivial gatherings. In recent years, living with uncertainty became the core of her creative practice. Whether working with environmental turbulence, re-imagining possible futures or hosting participatory events, Maja's work is grounded in care.
