Hi, I'm Cal! I'm a 28 year old queer Appalachian multimedia artist. I'm making this fundraiser to help me afford my dream of going to graduate school for counseling and psychotherapy. The program I've been accepted for is Contemporary Creative Approaches to Psychotherapy and Counseling at Edge Hill University in the UK. I have my eyes on the UK because, among other reasons, my fiancé calls the country home. Going to Edge Hill would allow me not only to pursue my Masters in a field I'm passionate about, in a specialty that I love, but to be near the person I love the most. I've been lucky enough to spend my summer here in the UK visiting my partner and it's allowed me to feel even more confident in my choice to study here. Please help me breach the final gap needed to secure my place at university!
