==Background Information==
Maya Hawkes was born in Berlin, Germany, on May 12th, 1995. She was the daughter of an American soldier and a German policewoman, who met and fell in love while her father was stationed at the military base. Maya grew up in a bilingual and bicultural household, learning to speak both English and German fluently. She also learned to embrace the values of law enforcement and military service from a young age, as she admired her parents' dedication and courage. She enjoyed living in Berlin, where she had many friends and explored the city's rich history and culture. She stayed there until the age of eight, when her father received orders to relocate to Liberty City in the United States. 
The move to Liberty City was not easy for Maya. She had to leave behind her friends, her home, and her familiar surroundings. She also had to adjust to a new school system, where she felt out of place and struggled academically. Her grades suffered not because she lacked intelligence, but because she lacked effort and support. She grew distant from her parents, who were busy with their careers and had high expectations for her. Her father was a high-ranking and well-decorated officer in the military, and her mother was a former high-ranking and well-respected policewoman in Germany, who was starting her career back up in the States. Maya felt pressured to follow in both of their footsteps, but she did not know what she wanted to do with her life.
After finishing high school, Maya did not pursue higher education or join the military. Instead, she spent most of her time working as a bartender or waitress to get by. She tried to hide from the path set forth by her family and lived from day to day without much of a plan for the future. Eventually she was bored and frustrated with her lack of purpose and ambition and started to look for something more exciting and meaningful. She found it when she met a private investigator, who hired her as an assistant. She learned a lot from him and developed a keen interest in solving cases and helping people. She finally felt motivated to go into law enforcement and follow her mother's path, but she wanted to do it by herself with her own effort. She decided to move away from Liberty City and start fresh in a new place. 
She moved to Leonida, a small town in Leonard County, and applied to the Leonard County Sheriff's Department. She passed the physical and mental tests and enrolled in the training academy. She worked hard and graduated with honors and got hired as a deputy sheriff. She was assigned to patrol duty, where she met Taylor, another deputy. The two hit it off right away and became partners and friends. They also became closer over time, and realized they had feelings for each other. They started dating, and eventually came out as a couple. Maya was happy and fulfilled with her job and her relationship. She worked towards getting into a detective unit, where she could use her skills and experience to solve more complex and challenging cases. Taylor supported her in her goals and had ambitions of her own. Together they wanted to move to Los Santos, but before then the two got married in a small ceremony. They packed their bags and moved to Los Santos, where they hoped to start a new chapter in their lives.
