In this episode of African Voices, we sit down with Maya, a student at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business, to discuss her unique journey from South Africa to pursuing a Masters of Science in Environment and Sustainability Management.

Maya shares her experiences working in the male-dominated private equity industry in South Africa, and how she founded a network called Womvest to support women investing in women-led businesses.

She also discusses her decision to pursue a specialized graduate degree to pivot towards becoming an impact investment professional, and the importance of being intentional and strategic when planning one's career path.

Join us as we explore Maya's inspiring story and gain valuable insights into the world of impact investing and sustainable business practices.
