About Me

Describing yourself is not an easy task, considering we all are our own worst critics. I like to believe I am easy going, laidback, friendly, & very compassionate. I pride myself in the treatment I render to others, in and out of my job. I have been in Emergency Medical Services for 11 years full time. I work entirely too much and get paid entirely too little for what I do. I have come to the realization, being happy isn't in a paycheck. Even though the long hours, extensive training, dedication, and continued education never ends, I am one of the first to show pride in being a Paramedic. I am currently a single, gay man trying to make a better life. I reside alone in a 2 bedroom apartment on the upper east side. I spend much of my time with friends but often, I find myself in my apartment alone. I plan on getting a puppy soon. Puppies do cure just about anything. I believe, what goes around, comes around. Our own experiences foremost determine the relationships we develop. I am a determined indivual. I have been determined to succeed in everything I do. My history has proven what I can do. I have made many accomplishments in my life. Being a 2 time cancer survivor shows headstrong determination. I have taken a new direction in my life, never losing sight of the things that really matter. It's important to have dreams, but it's even more importantly to persue them. I believe in fate and karma is right behind it. I'm a strong believer that everything happens for a reason. I have been told I am friendly person. I just treat others how I would expect to be treated, repectfully enough. I have been told, I am a person of many words and great wisdom. The words I mentioned above briefly touch the qualities I possess. I have a understanding and appreciation on what friendship means, what relationships acquire, and what life is suppose to be about. I wish I had the answers to ALL of those cosmic questions that are sent out into the void, but mystery enough, we're not suppose to. I consider myself one of those guys you just have to know.I am ready to meet that special someone. Someone who will not only glance at what I present on the outside, but is willing to take a deeper look. That deeper look is what will keep you interested. My qualities are not only to be desired but the desire of wanting to find them is the key. More times than none, it's about picking one person & making it work

My Interests

I love spending times with my friends, partying and having a good time. I love music and I love to dance. I enjoy the outdoors. I like playing volleyball, raquetball, and I love gymnastics. I was a gymnast for 12 years. I enjoy watching sports, especially college basketball. Go ILLINI! I go to the gym frequently. Since my bout with cancer, I have vowed to always stay healthy. Well, that and look good.

Music:

Anything really! I love ALL music. I have learned to appreciate all kinds of music. To me, music is emotion in motion, captured in time, and set to a beautiful melody, to take your heart to a different state of mind. ~Matchbox 20 ~The Fray ~Justin Timberlake ~BRITNEY ~Madonna ~Janet Jackson ~Beyonce ~Nickelback ~Hinder ~Johnny Cash ~Hank Williams ~Garth Brooks ~Tim McGraw ~Kenny Chesney ~Sugarland ~ACDC ~Chicago ~Take That ~Rihanna ~Chris Brown-- The list goes on and on. Those mentioned above are some of my favs. I am a Britney Spears fanatic! I hold onto high hopes and have faith in the pop princess. She will soar again.

Heroes:

My Parents! Lance Armstrong! My Parents! Dr. Philip Dy! These are the people that have changed my life forever. Without them, I would not be here. I owe them a great deal. The helped me survive the hardest time in my life, the most difficult and trying time. Without them, I could not claim to be a 2 time cancer survivor. I have respect, honor, and a great deal of gratitude for them. I love them all!
