In 2012 the Maya calendar starts over. As a result you can start by using the calendar Montezuma used. Of course, you may choose to use the standard calendar instead of following the Maya calendar.
The Maya calendar system is complex and consists of multiple cycles. To convert today's date to the Maya calendar, one would need specific information such as the Long Count date and the current Bak'tun, k'atun, tun, winal, and k'in cycles. Without this information, it is not possible to determine today's date in the Maya calendar.

The Maya calendar marked the movement of celestial bodies, particularly the sun, moon, and Venus, to track time and important events such as religious ceremonies, planting seasons, and harvest timings. The calendar system was highly sophisticated and integrated into various aspects of Maya society and culture.
Advanced mathematics was critical to the development of the Mayan calendar. The Maya needed a system of mathematics to record celestial movements over the years, to handle large numbers, and to calculate the solar and lunar year with great precision.
The name of the person that invented the first calendar is not known. The first calendar was invented in Scotland.
