I am 19 years old from Las Vegas, Nevada. I've grown up with a Catholic background. I went to Religious Ed weekly in elementary school and spent three years at a Catholic middle school. After, I went to Clark High School, to study math and science in their magnet program, where I finally declared myself as an atheist. I am currently a freshman at UNR, and starting in the fall, I will begin studying Mechanical Engineering. I recently got involved with SSA and enjoy being a part of it.

Although born, raised, and educated in a Catholic community, my faith has since dwindled and disappeared. From Philadelphia to Reno I am currently in pursuit of a PhD in psychology. With a love for reading and a continual interest in why people do what they do, I have come to better understand myself, others, and God’s nonexistence. Aside from my interests in psychology I enjoy playing music, keeping fit, and open discussions with people of many different backgrounds.
