LoZZbyCA's journey

I recently had an interview for a marketing position at a tech startup, but I feel like I performed poorly due to an unexpected personal crisis that happened just before the interview. I was really stressed and distracted, which affected my ability to answer questions clearly. Now I'm worried about how this might impact my chances of getting the job. I'm considering reaching out to the interviewer to explain the situation, but I'm unsure if that would be appropriate or if it would come off as making excuses. Any advice on how to handle this would be greatly appreciated.
