I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm 27 and just left Southwest Omaha for Norfolk, NE. I graduated from Iowa State in 2001 and am a couple credits away from finishing my MA at UN Omaha. I enjoy working out, gambling, and spending time with friends.I finished classes at Iowa State in Dec 2001 and moved to Iowa City shortly afterwards to do my internship in cardiac rehabilitation at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. The summer of 2002 brought me to Omaha for graduate school and to work as a personal trainer. I've since given up personal training and have put graduate school on hold. After 2 1/2 yrs of personal training I tried the insurance business briefly and even spent 7 months playing poker professionally. Now I work in middle management for a large international company.Traveling is something I've always done. My parents lived overseas for the majority of my life. Even though I grew up in Southern California, I spent a lot of my life in the Middle East or passing through Europe. In August 2004 I took a whirl-wind gambling tour of Europe that landed me in Germany, Belgium, France and Holland. I speak French and Arabic with some proficiency and enjoy sampling other cultures whenever I have the chance.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anyone and everyone. It doesn't seem like this site is geared towards networking but I'd like to meet other people with similar career paths and personal interests.
