Ralph "RJ" Mariani
I am from Las Vegas, Nevada, where I attended the University of Nevada – Las Vegas for 2 years. This year, I am taking a break from school to serve on NET. This year, it will be difficult for me to be away from my family and to give up my car! However, I am looking forward to meeting new people and travelling the country.
In the future, I would like to finish college and either be a youth minister or an Air Force chaplain. A dream I have is to start an all-Catholic car club in Las Vegas and evangelize at car shows and races. My favorite things to do in my free time are to either sleep or play poker.
