Maya Bird-Murphy

Maya Bird-Murphy is an architectural designer, educator, and cultural producer. In 2017, while working full-time and completing her Master of Architecture, she launched Mobile Makers, an award-winning nonprofit that makes design education more accessible through workshops, community engagement, public installations, and pop-ups hosted out of a retrofitted mail truck. Bird-Murphy’s practice centers on empowering people to see themselves as agents of change in the spaces they inhabit, and her work has welcomed thousands of children and community members to engage with architectural discourse.
