About Me

*I grew up in Detroit my whole life and moved to DC for my career, after I graduated from college. I am very proud of my Midwestern morals and values instilled into me, from my parents. A few words I would use to describe myself include: independent, responsible, trustworthy, caring, loveable, silly, and positive…that’s about all I can say about myself without coming off inappropriate. I live with 3 of my best friends in a new house in Lansdowne CC (see THE KITTI on my friends list) and when we all get together; we definitely have fun and I often have a goofy sense of humor. I am a HUGE dork! I also can be serious (like when I'm working), I'm all business)! Sometimes I’m quiet also, must be an only child thing. I love the weekends, weekdays can be fun too, however I am a lot more chill during the week. My philosophy is work hard and play hard, just as long as you can manage that lifestyle, while being successful. I tend to catch up on my sleep during the week.*My interests are outdoor stuff, dance clubs/bars, comedy clubs, movies, restaurants, sporting events, watching sports, playing sports (Basketball, golf, baseball, football, tennis), working out, writing, wineries, domestic and international travel and shopping. In addition, I am very much into investing and the markets. I think it's important to plan for the future and if you can afford to invest, it's a great avenue to create additional wealth. *I really like Atlanta, Vegas and Chicago nightlife! Vegas is just the best place for our friends to go if we want a weekend to live it up. Love the Vegas pools (Flamingo, Hard Rock, Palms and Mandalay Bay)!*Well i named a bunch of stuff I like, here are a few things that pretty much suck... the toll road to Philly/NYC, pleats, black jeans, the stickler security guards at my office building (you know me already), parking in Adams Morgan, red eye flights, DC taxi "Zone System", early morning Vegas flights="club drunk" at the airport, turbulence, dry cleaners that crease jeans (or lose your shirts), shrinking clothes, pollen (gets me in May), Dewey Beach cops, the Greeway in VA ($5 to go to Ashburn?), Southwest airlines stupid seating system, The G Gates in Washington Dulles airport, the guy who sucker punched me at Ned's, sandals and socks, dust (especially cleaning it on a ceiling fan-THE WORST), the dishwasher/sink 'throw-up', stepping in an unknown wetness, when you're in the shower and you forgot to turn your alarm off, Bluetooth earpieces are terrible, the TV show M*A*S*H (I think it has those stupid asterisks in there), humidity when dressed up, hotel bed comforters, down pillows, moving out, when your papers get stuck in the fax machine, barbers who speak broken English=bad haircuts, tennis shoes and pants, when people in rows behind you try to leave the plane before the front rows, guys who think "naked" is the locker room "dress code", jean shorts, dudes who wear polo's and/or bathing suits to the gym as workout gear, scoop-necks, turtle necks, (I think they both look ridiculous on guys)....ok, that’s enough. Finally, there’s a ton more to me than the surface image demonstrated on myspace…for example (I have a lot more depth than that).....and NO I’m not a 24/7 partier (not even close), it’s just usually when the camera is out.
