Introduction

My name is Riley Newson.  I am the oldest of five children - I have three little sisters and a brother.  I don't really feel like I have a hometown because I have moved at least every three years for my entire life, but I currently live in Kansas City, Missouri.  My dad recently retired from the Army and my family moved to the Midwest to be closer to my grandparents.  So far, I have lived in Illinois, Colorado, Germany, and Hawaii.  I love to travel and meet new people.

I am interested in art (specifically drawing) and writing poetry and short stories, but I also fascinated by the sciences. I hope to major in either Neuroscience or Psychology and go on to medical school.  I don't consider myself to be very athletic, but I participated in both lacrosse and Irish dance for four years in high school.  I play club lacrosse for Trinity, and I'm also a member of the Psychology Club and RUF (Reformed University Fellowship).

My knowledge of computers is pretty limited - I use my laptop to write papers, read my Email, and surf the Internet.  If I have any computer problems, I usually go straight to a friend instead of trying to fix it myself.  I'm looking forward to expanding my basic knowledge of computers.
