Biography[]
Early life[]
Maya lost both of her parents at some point in her youth.
Young Maya.
Around 2012, Maya deactivated Harrison Nash Wells's security drone and broke into his camp. When Nash caught and interrogated her, she explained how the treasure he had was worth much more than he knew, and Nash gave Maya his hat as a gift in return. When Maya revealed she was orphaned, Nash offered her the chance to join him in his travels, which she accepted, and he informally adopted her.
Maya took Nash's motto of putting their goal of discovery and recovery above everything else; however, unlike Nash, she was more willing to endanger herself.
Afterwards, Maya became Nash's assistant and the two eventually took a photo together. At some point, they visited Corto Maltese on Earth-13, where Maya picked up a sonic emitter at the highest peak.[1][2]

- "Maya, don't!"
"The prize is everything." - —Nash and Maya's last conversation[src]
Around 2019, Maya and Nash traveled back to Earth-13, where they found a hatch off of a cliff with a memory cell inside. Unfortunately, Maya lost her footing on the ledge and, having undone her safety clip, fell to her death.[1]
Legacy[]
- "When I lost Maya... every day since then, I wanted to say, 'Hey, listen, I'm sorry; it was my fault.' But she's gone."
- —Harrison Nash Wells[src]

Nash took a long time to forgive himself for Maya's death. The "ghost" of Eobard Thawne would use this to his advantage when trying to possess Nash's mind. However, Nash finally came to terms with Maya's death due to their family motto and was able to expel the ghost with the help of Cecile Horton, Barry Allen, and Cisco Ramon.[1]
Maya's Earth-1/Earth-Prime doppelgänger, Allegra Garcia, had a strained relationship with Nash since every time he saw Allegra, he thought of his daughter and tried to bond with her on that level. It was only after Nash saw Allegra as her own person and Allegra realized his good intentions that she started warming up to him.[3][4]
Allegra kept a picture of Maya and Nash with her as a reminder of Nash.[5]
