I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Born near Boston, became a grown-up in NYC, currently in L.A. I like going new places, reading new things. I like listening to and learning from people that have had different experiences than me.I try to get out of the comfort zone occasionally. There is genius in boldness and sometimes you have to force yourself to face your fears. If it doesn't work out, so what, you made your move, you tried. We won't die from rejection or failure. I don't like pretentiousness, self-absorbtion or narcissism (although, saying you hate narcissism and being on myspace, is a bit like saying you hate anti-Semitism and then joining a neo-Nazi organization. But I digress). I feel more time should be put into creating or connecting to something rather than simply cultivating an image.Augustine said, "Love, and do what ye will." I say, respect your fellow beings, don't hurt anyone, don't take yourself too seriously, and then do whatever you want. No boundaries, no protocol, no monitoring of oneself. It's all going to be over fairly shortly, so let's take some chances.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

All sorts of fine folk.
