I started ScriptEd to help young people access careers in tech.

For her work with ScriptEd, Maurya has been honored as an IgniteGood/Huffington Post Millennial Impact Fellow, an Ashoka Emerging Innovator, a Catalyst by the City of New York, a NY Business Journal Woman of Influence and was named as one of seven millennials “too busy changing the world to take selfies.”
