She was a member of the school’s drama club, and appeared in a couple of plays, but has admitted in one of her videos that she isn’t talented. She tried to play a variety of sports such as volleyball and tennis too, but apparently wasn’t very good at these either. Upon matriculation in 2016, Maya enrolled at college, and graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in 2019.
Why Maya Higa is so famous? Career
Maya became famous mostly because the LiveStreamFail community which counts half a million members often posted about her on the reddit website, and a stream in which Maya is eating cereal was viewed nearly 500,000 times after it was promoted on the site. Since she became famous on the Twitch platform, she has been helping poor people in several ways, including gathering money while streaming on her birthday, and later donated it to the 5 Cities Homeless Coalition. She has volunteered with the same organization on several occasions, which is how she knew it needed money.
Maya has collaborated with many other Twitch stars, including Pokelawls who is from Canada and is six years older than her. Pokelawls is mostly focused on live-streaming while playing the video game “Overwatch”, and although he has been using the platform for over seven years now, he only has around 100,000 followers more than Maya. Pokelawls and Maya are mostly singing songs together in their collaboration videos.
She has also worked with Matthew ‘Mizkif’ Rinaudo, who has gathered nearly 500,000 followers on his channel, and who is mostly streaming while playing video games.

Mizkif is suffering from a heart condition – viral myocarditis – and in the summer of 2019, he had to be hospitalized after suffering from a panic attack and having a high heart rate.
Love life and relationships
It is widely believed that Maya has been in a relationship with Mizkif for nearly a year now. Maya live streamed on Twitch while trying to put together her PC (unsuccessfully), and after watching her video, Mizkif messaged her and they agreed to collaborate, later meeting in person. Their fans noticed that the two were very close – they felt attraction between them, and asked in the comments whether or not they were dating.
While Maya has denied the rumors and stated ‘I do like him, and he likes me so people see that’, Mizkif has told the public that they are indeed in a relationship and might marry in the upcoming years, but some believe that he is only joking.
In June 2019, Maya flew to Austin, Texas to see Mizkif and his friends, who are living in the same house from which they are streaming, and she streamed together with Mizkif – their videos gathered many views and likes.
