Maria was Anya's biggest inspiration for pursuing the field of science.

Maria is Anya's step-sister and her major influence in her interest of science. In Generations, it appeared that Maria became a member of Horizon's faculty at the request of Doctor Connor's, however it was actually the Chameleon masquerading as Maria at the request of Norman Osborn creating a team to go up against the Web-Warriors. Anya was almost fooled by Chameleon imitation of Maria until Anya started asking questions about their other sister Angela and how Maria gave Anya a microscope for her first day at Horizon. In actuality, it was laptop and Anya saw through Chameleon's ruse.

Afterwards, Anya called Maria to make sure she was still okay. She was glad to hear that her older sister was still on her Rainforest Research Expedition.
