Riley's move to Germany for the Berlin Opera Academy!

Hello!

Most of you know me-- I'm Riley, and I'm an opera singer. This year I was given the amazing opportunity to attend the first ever Berlin Opera Academy year-round program-- an opera program in Berlin aimed at graduate level singers who are ready to begin pursuing a career in opera. Beginning this October and running at least through next August, I will be living full time in Berlin and studying opera as well as the German language.

While I have been able to raise money in various ways for tuition, there are quite a lot of expenses involved in making the move to Germany! My goal for this campaign is to raise money for things like kitchen implements, bedding, a bicycle, an electronic keyboard-- all things that I can't bring with me from home, as well as things like transportation passes for getting around in Berlin.

To everyone who has supported me in any way up to this point-- thank you! The support of my family, friends, coworkers, and more are what have made this possible. Thank you for continuing to support me as I follow this amazing opportunity!
