About Maya Systems

Food. Justice. Joy.

These three words define our approach to work, and life, at Maya Systems Design. 

At MSD, we are pragmatists who dare to dream. Because we believe we can design our dreams into reality. Only by planning today will we be ready to rebuild and strengthen our commitments to community and planet tomorrow.

MSD offers technical knowledge, lived experience, and the creativity to imagine what can and will be.

MSD brings 20 years of experience in food systems design, implementation, and evaluation. We work collaboratively with individuals, organizations, institutions, and communities to plan for a future that centers health and wellbeing for children, communities, and the planet.

Our particular areas of expertise include creative k-12 food systems and regional food systems design and development. 

MSD works with clients to understand root causes, co-design solutions, implement and adapt model approaches, and evaluate impact.

Each project is unique, and each project is approached within a systems-design framework that relies on qualitative and quantitative assessments, and a community-oriented lens that seeks to identify strengths to leverage for project success.
