Maya Perets was born in Rehovot, Israel; lived in Vanta, Finland; and moved to Sofia, Bulgaria with her parents, big brother, and little sister where she currently lives. Maya is fluent in Hebrew and English. When she just got into 4th grade, she noticed something, she felt a little wired and didn't know what to do about it. Later on in that year, she found out that she is insecure and not confident in what she does or says at all. Now Maya is in 6th grade and is still working on her confidence and is on her way to being more and more confident every day. During her journey in self-confidence, she noticed a lot of things, like how it can be a real struggle to people and how it can actually help them, like Maya, it helped her see who she really was.
