I’m raising funds for my study abroad program in Japan, where I plan to study computer science and art as I work toward becoming a game designer.

This opportunity matters deeply to me because it would help me improve my Japanese and grow my cultural understanding of what different markets connect with in video games. I want to learn in a way that supports both my creative goals and my future in game design.

I’m asking for help now because the funds will be needed by June 2027, and starting early gives people time to donate. If I receive additional scholarships, I’ll be able to gradually lower the amount I still need.

Donations will go toward my classes, basic transportation, and living expenses during the program. I’m also facing personal challenges at home, as my mom lives with chronic pain, and that has made financial help especially meaningful right now.

Any support, whether through a donation or by sharing my fundraiser, would help me move closer to this chance to study in Japan and build the skills I need for my future. Thank you for being part of that journey.
