About Me

I am a 44 year old man who is deeply spiritual with a nice blend of traditional and alternative beliefs, and well grounded as well. I have a strong passion for life and honesty and integrity are core values for me. Balance is essential. I am community oriented and consider my friends my family. I am from Baltimore but have been here in Michigan for over 17 years. I have been running an active criminal defense practice for several years and I have no qualms doing so, regardless of what my personal beliefs may be on guilt or innocence. I love live music and volunteer for a non profit (www.scijellyfish.org) that travels with jambands. What are jambands-some would call them hippy bands. More jamming than singing. I also have a working relationship with several local bands, providing advice and strategy in getting to the next level. My friends are the folks that put on shows here and on the national level. I play percussion and love to dance to world beat, jazz, funk soul and just good ole rock and roll. I am very passionate about what I believe in, but will not argue my position outside of the courtroom. LOL. I do consider myself very open to the viewpoints of others and will try to educate myself on things I do not know. I can hold my own in a deeply philosophical and the inane. I am veggie with a little bit of fish. I am a non smoker and non drug and alcohol user, though I do not have problem with folks who do so in moderation. W

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

This is touchy. I have not been so good at choosing partners. Maybe with all this life experiences, I should have PhD in what not to look for. LOL I still would like to meet people of a similar ilk. I feel that at my age, I am comfortable with the things that move me, but am not inflexible. My last relationship showed me there was room to bend. I will not make an excuse, however, for my love of live music, drumming,spirituality, my law practice and what not. But as far as people go, I am looking for friends that are not judgmental, are evolved and are into diverse things. Because of my vast interests and background, and my ability to get out there and do new things, sky's the limit as to whom will be met.
