About the author

Maya Bennett

Personal finance writer and researcher

Maya Bennett is the writer behind Discover Brief. She turns complex money topics — budgeting, saving, credit, investing, and loans — into clear, practical guides readers can actually use.

Her work focuses on everyday financial decisions: explaining how money habits compound, translating jargon, and showing readers what to check before they save, borrow, or invest. Maya is an independent finance writer, not a licensed financial adviser, and her articles are educational information rather than individualized advice.
