Maya Miller is a major character in Season 3 and Season 4 of the Netflix series, Ozark.
She is portrayed by Jessica Frances Dukes.
Story
Maya joins the main cast in Season 3 as an FBI agent and forensic accountant, with one goal of taking Marty Byrdedown. She is pregnant throughout the season and she works on site at the casino, monitoring the ins and outs of the finances at the casino to check for any laundering or inconsistencies. Maya offers Marty a way out- to serve 18 months in a federal prison and then to work for her team directly to prosecute more money laundering cases. Marty initially accepts the offer, but after getting abducted by Omar Navarro, he changes his mind. He decides that he wants to "turn" her and have her work for him. She doesn't fall for it. Maya continues to get on Marty's case and wants him to take the deal, even though her frustrations with him keep increasing. Eventually they agree to make a deal- Navarro will work with the FBI for 5 years before accepting minimal jail time. Maya arranges the deal and it's a go until she goes rogue and arrests Navarro, leaving the FBI and Marty and Wendy shocked and surprised. After that, the FBI gives her low profile work because they don't trust her as much.
Personality
For contrast, Agent Maya always follows the protocol and acts within the boundaries of law and her own jurisdiction, while being one of, if not the nicest characters in the whole series. That doesn't mean she's easy to trick, can't see through various charades or will be easily brown-beat into submission. Likewise, her main quest being bringing down dangerous criminals like Navarro and tries to convince Marty to come clean and using his skills for justice.
