I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me


I love life. I love to have fun. . no matter what. I like to think that living in the present and a focus on the future is so much more important than worrying about the past. I strongly believe in being open-minded and living transparent at all times. I'm extremely extroverted but enjoy the quiet times as well. I'm easy to talk too, positive and understanding. I'm strong willed, motivated and caring. I love to learn. Always looking for those that can teach me something. I hesitate to make sweeping judgments but instead look for patterns. I'll tell you the truth and not necessarily always what you want to hear. I can be laid back yet very passionate. Fun and easy to get along with. I know myself and what I believe, therefore can often sound opinionated, yet I love to learn and grow. It takes a lot to stress me out. Life's too short not to enjoy it any way possible. I know how to listen and I can be extremely intuitive--more so sometimes than I like! I'm very comfortable in a variety of environments. I love sports--baseball, basketball, golf, tennis--playing them or watching them. When I need to relax, a night in and a bottle of wine to share with someone special is one of my favorites. I enjoy the outdoors--mostly if it's sunny and warm. I can appreciate the symphony or a good local band. A play or a great stand-up comedian. Good, stimulating conversation is a must. I'm very artistic and creative and I'm a designer by profession and work with a marketing company, mostly in web design, video production and post production. Studio photography and residential design are passionate hobbies. I enjoy meeting all types of people, networking and discovering anything new. I am blessed with many wonderful friends and I like to spend most of my free time with people who make me feel alive.

My Interests

Residential design. Photography. Art. Self expression. Fashion. I'm originally from Cali--so I love the sun. Warm places. Beaches. Travel. Sunsets. Dive bars. Clubs. Lakes. Sports: Baseball, basketball, football, tennis, golf. Parties. People. Interesting conversation. People watching. People who know why they have opinions.

I'd like to meet:

. . anyone that I can learn from. Anyone that enjoys networking and making a new friend. In general, people who are open minded, have a great sense of humor and can have fun in any situation, are who I gravitate toward.

As far as that special someone, I'm not necessarily "looking" but I definitely know what I'm attracted to. Women who are genuinely happy with themselves and feel complete. . .even single. Women that know that the past is not necessarily a prediction of the future. I'm intrigued by a woman that can light up a room. I don't have to be the center of attention, so I'm generally attracted to woman who like the spotlight. Unnecessary drama and a serious interest in others' problems is not attractive to me.

Life is short. Although hard work and time spent improving ourselves is important, so is experiencing new things and always having fun.

Music:

Music is a huge part of my life. Electronic music in particular. There's hardly an second in a day that goes by that something isn't playing . . on my iPod . . on my computer . . in my car . . on my stereo . . on my phone . . .

To paraphrase Jason Blum (Deepsky) . .

Electronic music is the pulse of life. Evocative of all genres, yet guided by a set of dynamics and instrumentation very much its own . . . it shouts, whispers, pounds and breathes emotion on a level that can only be reached via the hyper-imaginative manipulation of synthesizer and drum . . .to tug at the heart, challenge the mind, and inspire the body . . .

Even so, I have a huge range of musical interest. I don't believe in remaining stagnant and listening to just one genre.
Electronica, trance, vocal trance, progressive trance, techno, dance, rock, classic rock, blues, classical, opra, some country, metal, industrial and industrial trance (I "create" to it--don't ask me how or why, it just works!), gothic, alternative.

The Usual Suspects, No Way Out, The Matrix Trilogy, Chariots of Fire, Pleasantville, The Ring, The Godfather Trilogy, Citizen Kane, High Noon, Bringing Up Baby, Star Wars Eps. 3-6, Wedding Crashers, Dumb and Dummer, Return of the Living Dead, About a Boy, Knotting Hill, Revenge, Borat
