She attended and taught numerous workshops in Canada, United States and Europe, and participated in ceramic residencies in Canada, Hungary, Serbia and France. Maja received several grants and awards from the New Brunswick Arts Board, Sheila Hugh Mackay Foundation, Canada Council for the Arts and Canadian Clay and Glass Association. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and is part of public and private collections in North America, Europe and Asia.
