Your support keeps me on my digital psychic quest, making tech accessible and empowering for everyone.
Every resource I create is free. Every tutorial, every tool, every insight—available to anyone who needs it.
Your support makes that possible.

We&apos;re currently in a government shutdown, and I&apos;ve been out of work since January 2025. This is all I do now.
As someone navigating the SSDI process while my husband works as a federal employee, our income depends on
government budget approvals. We&apos;re in the middle of another long furlough with no end in sight.
I believe technology education should be accessible to everyone—no paywalls, no gatekeeping, no barriers.
That&apos;s why everything I create is free: coding tutorials, accessibility guides, neurodivergent-friendly tools,
and resources that help people navigate the digital world with confidence.
</p>
<p>
I have no 401K, no savings to fall back on. Your contributions literally help me pay my bills, keep the lights on,
continue my research into accessible technology, and yes, keep my cats fed with their favorite treats.
More importantly, they let me keep creating content, tools, and resources that make technology more approachable
for neurodivergent folks and everyone who&apos;s ever felt overwhelmed by the digital world.
Creating high-quality, free content takes time, research, and resources. Your support directly enables me to:
</p>
<ul className="list-disc list-inside space-y-2 ml-4 text-white/90">
<li>Continue producing free tutorials and guides</li>
<li>Develop new tools and resources for the community</li>
<li>Research and share accessibility best practices</li>
<li>Maintain and improve existing free resources</li>
<li>Keep creating content that makes tech less intimidating</li>
</ul>
<p className="text-brand-green-accent font-medium">
Every coffee, every tip, every share makes a real difference in keeping this mission alive during this difficult time.
When you support this work, you&apos;re not just supporting me—you&apos;re ensuring these resources stay free
and accessible for everyone who needs them.
