An Australian marketer who was earning nearly $100,000 a year is asking strangers to pay for her Green Card so she can live and work in America.

Claire Morgan, from Sydney, quit her job, split with her boyfriend and packed her bags for Los Angeles after having what she described as an 'internal crisis'.

'I had really achieved everything that I thought I should want for my age and stage in life,' Ms Morgan said in a 14-minute video posted on her GoFundMe page.

'I was making close to six figures in my late 20s, had the boyfriend, the great job title, and a beautiful apartment in the heart of Sydney and everything looked great.'

'I had really achieved everything that I thought I should want for my age and stage in life,' Ms Morgan said in a 14-minute video posted on her GoFundMe page

But the 29-year-old said she was 'miserable' so she decided to 'pull everything apart'.

'I walked away from my job... broke up with my boyfriend and let go of a few people I was close to in my life,' she said.

'I packed up my bags, ended my lease, sold all my stuff and I felt called to go to LA.'

Ms Morgan has been in Los Angeles for around five months and wants to stay to follow her dream of becoming a nutrition and lifestyle coach.

She is asking for $4,000 on her crowdfunding page to pay for a Green Card, which will allow her to permanently live and work in the U.S.

'Some of you might be wondering what happened to my money when I had such a comfortable job and a comfortable life,' she said in the video.

'The reality of the situation is, I still spent what I earned.'

Ms Morgan said she arrived in America on a visa that didn't allow her to work, adding she was 'really proud' she hadn't done anything illegitimate.

'During my time in LA I have not done any cash work or received money illegally, even though there have been plenty of opportunities,' she said.

'This is something I am really proud of.'

Ms Morgan is reaching out to Donald Trump on Twitter and has retweeted her GoFundMe video to the U.S. President every day for the past week.

'While I'm raising money, this is not my sole purpose. I have a message to share and you never know who might need to hear it,' she added.

'Thanks for being part of my journey!'
