My name is Carissa Denise. I am a recent graduate of Edward C. Reed High School and a freshman at the University of Nevada. I am majoring in Social Work and minoring in Substance Abuse Prevention. I have a passion for service and I would like to dedicate my life to this. Ultimately, I dream of working for the United Nations in hopes of helping children in need all around the world and creating a better future for them. Before I die, I want to start my own recreational center that would provide for the local misled children and teenagers in my hometown.
