About Me

I am a single dad with a beautiful eight year-old daughter whom I cherish spending time with. I enjoy the outdoors and staying active. In the summers, I bike ~100 miles a week and run occasionally. In the winter, I go to the gym and play sand volleyball. I enjoy horseback riding, scuba diving, swimming, hiking through woods, walking on the beach, cozying up in front of a campfire, etc. I can be both outgoing and adventurous and laid-back and romantic. I am 6'1", 195 lbs, dark blond/brown hair, dark green eyes. I am loyal and love to smile and laugh. I believe that no one is perfect except for God and only He can save us from our imperfections. A personal relationship with Him is the answer!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Friends that put God as the number one priority in their lives followed by their kids, a significant other, and friends. Or, friends that have lost souls and are seeking direction and purpose in this life who are interested in exploring how a personal relationship with God can make all the difference in the quality of life we live with the time we have here and what that could mean for eternity. Friends that are more interested in the biblical truth then "religion" and in relationship then scripture memorization and debate. It's all about application.I appreciate friends that are active and full of life with a good sense of humor. I believe in any good relationship transparency is key as is candid communication. Good Christian friends are always there for one another - through the good, the bad, and the ugly. I have found great joy in community outreach and helping others and would like to share it.
