Hello everyone. My name is Jorge-Armando Diaz. I'm a 29 year old, gay, Latino male. I live in Los Angeles, California. I have been HIV positive since 2001. I'm currently a graduate student at UCLA working on my Master's and soon will be applying to the PhD program at UCLA. I try to be as involved and open about my status to educate others and break stereotypes and stigma. I'm completely out about mys sexual orientation and HIV status to my entire family and friends. Life has been a roller coaster for me, but I have fastened my seat belt and enjoyed the ride. I'm currently single, and enjoying the single life. LOL.
There's so much about me that I'm just lost in train of thought as to what to write. But I am excited to be part of this project and hope to chat and get to know all of you. It's great to have friends that understand what I am going through. My friends are very supportive, but it's nice to talk to people who are HIV positive like myself. Hope to chat with all of you soon.
