Hello and thanks for your post. Unfortunately questions about whether a particular employee is exempt or not from overtime requirements depends very heavily on the specific facts. The employer's classification is not the determinative factor.
I encourage you to seek legal counsel on this. You are welcome to contact my firm (I offer a no cost initial 10 min phone consult) or another Maryland attorney of your choosing. This answer does not make you a client and is not a substitute for legal advice.
