Maria is from a broken family. Her parents married young and her father left when she was seven, and he hasn't been in her life since.
Her mother is a former hippie and single mother and works hard to provide for them. She loves Maria and makes the best home she can.
Maria seems to have inherited some of her mother's habits and lifestyle. She is into herbal remedies, aroma therapy and fortune tellers. She is an average student and not really into school. She was even in remedial science for three years.
She is known for being wacky, over reactive, energetic, jumps to wild conclusions, and has a tendency to freak out. She is a terrible liar and doesn't work well under pressure, but she also has surprising insight at times and can be a good friend.
She is a romantic, has craved love all her life, and envies what she sees as Liz and Max's 'perfect' relationship.
She has a talent for singing and even though she sings pop and classic songs, hopes to be like Alanis Morisette someday.
