June 11, 1988) is a Sudanese-Hungarian, American-born founder-funder, tech entrepreneur, omnologist, investor, product, digital & fashion designer, chef (Chef Elz), author, artist, music developer, and licensed cosmetologist.Maya’s early mastery across industries such as finance as a stock trader to technology as an architect reflects a native fluency in systems thinking.As a founder, she is the Co-Creator of the Yuhmmy App, the World\'s 1st Everything Social-Taste Superapp, and Co-Founder of its parent company, Labs Companies, Inc.(known simply as Labs [formerly LavLabs Inc.]), a superintelligence human-enhancement technology supercompany based in Santa Monica, CA.

She began launching businesses as a teen—studying fashion at FIT in NYC in high school and developing brands in music, fashion & early tech platforms. She went on to build federal government tech infrastructure projects through her company PowerBridge, which was later folded into her larger holding entity, Maya Industries Group, and simultaneously entered Washington DC\'s real estate and hard money lending markets. From the start, she moved across fields others thought unrelated, but she understood them as codependent layers of the same blueprint.With her husband, Duránd, Maya also stewards a family enterprise whose financial, scientific, and philanthropic architecture spans the Sivad Estate Trust (SET), SivadBank (SB), Sivad Wealth Investment Treasury (SWIT), Sivad Science Initiative (2SI), and Sivad Family Foundation (S2F)—a framework committed to shaping civilization-scale legacy.Born in Washington DC, raised in Maryland, and having spent parts of her childhood in Sudan, Maya now resides in Beverly Hills, CA.Independent time is spent with her husband and their nine children, as well as researching, writing, cooking, and pioneering a new scientific frontier: Omnology, the study of everything. Her current work explores the fascial system and the future of biocommunication—including telepathy, energetic transference and the mechanics of sensory evolution.
