Building Community Through Creativity and Care

Donation protected
Since August 2024, life has stripped me down to the essentials. I've been 'officially' homeless since June 1st, 2025.

In that rawness, I’ve come face to face with what’s not working—and what truly matters. For years, I’ve navigated the world feeling out of sync, overwhelmed by things others seemed to handle with ease, and constantly shape-shifting just to survive.

This journey has revealed something important: I’m not broken—I’m neurodivergent. My brain, my energy, and my way of seeing the world are simply different. That difference comes with deep creativity, empathy, and vision.

Right now, I’m living life in motion—staying with kind people who open their doors, camping when I can, and occasionally resting in vacation rentals like Airbnbs or motels when stability allows. Every place I land becomes part of this unfolding story: one of resilience, healing, and connection.

From this unconventional path, I’m building something bigger than myself—a community rooted in art, spirituality, and shared humanity. My mission is to create spaces (both online and in person) where creators, artists, spiritual practitioners, neurodivergent individuals, and unhoused persons can connect, collaborate, and feel supported.

Your support helps make this vision possible. Every contribution—no matter how small—helps me meet basic needs like food, transportation, and temporary shelter while I continue creating content, building my business, and offering healing and awareness work to others walking similar paths.

Your generosity doesn’t just sustain one person—it helps build a movement of care, creativity, and conscious community.

Thank you for seeing me, for believing in this work, and for walking with me as I rebuild from the ground up. Together, we are creating something real, something human, and something healing.
