Hi, I’m Maya!

I’M SO HAPPY YOU’RE HERE!

I’m a stained glass artist based in rural Mazomanie, Wisconsin, where I live with my boyfriend, our cat Linus, and our chocolate lab Luey. My journey with stained glass began in January 2025 as a New Year’s resolution to step out of my comfort zone and try something new. I’ve always been captivated by the beauty of the art form, so I finally decided to take a class—and from that very first session, I was completely hooked.

Creativity runs in my blood; I’ve always been a deeply artsy person, a trait I’m proud to have inherited from my dad. Today, nothing brings me more joy than watching light play through colored glass. I am so excited to keep honing my skills and to collaborate with you to create beautiful, handmade heirloom pieces that you will cherish for a lifetime.


Gilded Sun Glassworks believes that beauty deserves to be held, hung, and handed down. Each piece of glass is chosen, cut, and crafted by hand, shaped by a love for the natural world and a quiet determination to make something that outlasts the moment it was made.
