2014–2018: Early work In 2014, her blogging network "Blood Quantum Reform" was shortlisted to join the
United Nations Global Partnership for Youth. Maxkii used her blog to raise awareness on issues within Indian country primarily related to
blood quantum, education access, and tribal sovereignty. Around 2014, while still a tribal college student, she
co-produced and narrated a segment of the Navajo Oral History project which is now archived in the
Smithsonian. In 2015, she was invited to introduce Dr.
Jill Biden at a national Conference. Dr. Biden praised Maxkii's writing, encouraging people to read her work. Maxkii had participated in a number of
hackathons before being cast in the
Microsoft funded documentary series
Code_Trip, which premiered nationally in 2016. She, along with two other people, traveled across the country interviewing people in the technology industry. Maxkii used this platform to gain support for events focused on American Indians in technology. In November 2016, Maxkii successfully directed the first national American Indian Collegiate hackathon, focused on addressing the digital divide and access to the Internet by rural and underserved communities.

The American Indian College Fund and work with Indigenous rights Maxkii was named an ambassador to the
American Indian College Fund (AICF) in 2016, and began work with the 'Think Indian' campaign. The AICF 'Think Indian' campaign seeks to "tell the story of how America’s 32 accredited tribal colleges and American Indian students are combining traditional Native solutions with modern knowledge to solve contemporary problems." She has spoken out on education disparity, including speaking before the United States Senate Committee on Indian Affairs, and has advocated for equal opportunity among students of color, Indigenous students in particular.
