Expand or Retreat. Your contribution tips the scales toward expansion!

After over a decade of working as a teacher, performer, and community organizer, I made the intentional decision to pursue advanced graduate study. I took this leap to deepen my skills, expand my knowledge, and better serve others through psychology, movement and applied research. 

Yes I have a refined, tested practice, but I’m graduating into a drastically shifted landscape. Many of the roles that once supported artists, educators, and community-based practitioners have been defunded, erased or hard to find. Still, I remain committed—and undeterred. It's rough with now, but I believe I graduated right on time. What I have to offer is just what is desperately needed. So I'm choosing to lean in! 

Timeframe:

I have the strategy. The tools. The content. Now I just need the time.. As I re-establish a sustainable foundation for my work and life, I’m asking for your support to help cover essential living costs for August and September—two crucial months. Either I expand or retreat. 

Your contribution will help me stay grounded, resourced, and focused during this time of necessary transformation.

What the funds will cover:

• Housing, Bills & Basics
• Career Development – applications,  website hosting, and portfolio upkeep
• Relocation

Your support is not only a bridge—it’s an investment in the next chapter of a practice rooted in care, creativity, and community. Thank you for giving a hand as I root deeper and rise stronger - for me and us all.
