ROLL TIDE!

About Me

Originally from Birmingham, I moved to Atlanta a few years ago to advance my career as an Executive for an Ad Agency. I'm currently living in Dunwoody and still discoving the big city and all it has to offer. When I'm not shaking up the ad biz, I spend most of my time with friends just kicking around and having fun.
I graduated from The University of Alabama (ROLL TIDE!) and like most people from my home state, I'm a huge football fan. So in the Winter, Spring or Summer you'll usually find me relaxing on a patio in Virginia Highlands, or pounding Jagerbombs at 2am in Midtown, or fighting the crowds in East Andrews. But come Autumn...when there's a crisp breeze in the air and all the leaves on the old oaks have turned red and gold, you'll find me in Tuscaloosa, Alabama...in the shadows of Bryant-Denny Stadium...enjoying a cold beer with close friends and reminiscing about the "good ole days"...and enjoying some Crimson Tide Football.

My Interests

Between September and December my focus is on Crimson Tide Football. Yes I do have other hobbies....I enjoy spending time with Friends & Family, deep sea fishing, traveling, tailgating, cooking, music, cars, art, history, hunting, outdoors, quiet trips to Vegas, going out on weekends, listening to live music and just relaxing and having fun with good friends.

I'd like to meet:
