Hi, again.

Finding myself back here, raising money in the current economy and general state of the world doesn't feel good. But I would rather be honest with where I stand than act like I have anything figured out.

A month ago, I had to leave London as I couldn't afford to renew my visa and continue to work & create theatre. This hurt more than I've really let myself process, but I've looked forward with my best foot forward.

Fast forward to now: applying for jobs that I even remotely qualify for, waiting to hear back and understanding with each passing day what kind of economic turmoil the United States is currently in.

That said, I'm reaching out now because I need help. Living isn't easy and it isn't cheap. Right now, I'm raising funds for a deposit & to continue paying my various monthly bills.

I'm so thankful for everyone who's helped me in the past, who's helping me right now whether that be with emotional or literal support. Stepping forward again to ask for help like this isn't easy, but I have no one else to turn to. I firmly believe this is just a temporary bump in my road, and this kind of support will help keep me afloat.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and to hear me as a person, not just a story.
