She still has family in Ethiopia is is concerned for their well-being and safety as a civil war has broken out in the Tigray region where her family lives. She is planning on heading overseas as soon as her visa arrives to track down family members who she has not heard from since the outbreak of the war adding, "I've been crying non-stop, I don't know how the tears keep coming".
