Work with Maiamama
I run the streams and the tech behind them. I’m Maia Mills-Low, also known as Maiamama, and I lead all streaming and technical production for Calling Up Justice. I also run its Rapid Response Tech Team (RRTT).
I produce virtual, hybrid, and in-person events, train teams to run their own streams, host live shows, and design games. I bring a portable streaming kit, so in-person events can go live too.
My work mainly serves Disabled LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities. Before digital production, I worked with adults with disabilities as a caregiver, vocational coach, and advocate. Access is built into how I produce, not added at the end.
Services
Event Production: Virtual, Hybrid, and In-Person
I build and run the whole broadcast: cue-to-cue OBS scene collections, overlays, transitions, multistreaming, and live operation on the day. My portable kit lets me stream from your venue. Recent work includes a 47-scene production for Accessible Virtual Pride 2026, OBS operation for the Alice Wong Celebration of Life, and livestream production for the Accessible Sports in Society town hall.
Tech Trainings
Through RRTT, I teach people to run their own streams and events. Trainings cover OBS basics, scene building, and capturing highlight clips. Your team keeps the slide deck, script, and follow-up report.
Hosting and Speaking
I co-host Trek Talk and co-write Shorty Talk. I’m available for stream hosting, panels, and talks on Star Trek, video games, DC media, micro-dramas, and live production.
Creative Consultations
One-on-one guidance for designing your own text-based game in Twine, from first idea to publishing on itch.io. For creators at any experience level.
Design, Editing, and Tech Support
Video editing, slide decks, HTML newsletters, graphics, and troubleshooting your streaming setup. Recent work includes bilingual newsletters for the Vallejo Arts Fund.

- Community: grassroots groups, individual artists, and organizations led by Disabled, LGBTQIA+, or BIPOC people with small budgets.
- Standard: established nonprofits and small businesses.
- Institutional: universities, foundations, government, and corporations.
