I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I believe in living life with Freedom, Fulfillment, Fearlessness, and Fun. I like to work hard and play harder. I love being spontaneous and am capable of just about anything at any given moment. Laughing is my second favorite activity...I love being the life of the party, but I am also content sitting back and enjoying the scenery on occasion. Some people would say that I am cocky, but those that know me, know that I always back up what I say. I am loud, I love telling stories and jokes, and am always the person people come to for advice.I have been accused of being enormous amounts of fun on more than one occasion. If I give you a hard time, it probably means that I like you. If I don't like you, I just won't acknowledge your presence. I believe that whatever you focus on expands. People can either attract positivity, or negativity into their lives just by focusing on it. I choose to attract fun and positivity into my life, and I refuse to accept any less. So if you are a negative Debbie Downer, or a douche bag loser, I have no time for your bullshit.Oh, and if you did not already know...I am a ninja.

My Interests

Watching Football (Well the Chicago Bears to be exact-Huge Bear fan), being the center of attention, I love cooking for other people, good wine (especially full bodied reds), performing on stage(Yes, I act and sing professionally on occasion), movies, Micro-brews, Ketel One, Mixed Martial Arts, snowboarding, Sushi, really good steaks, traveling, camping, fly-fishing, watching stand-up comedy, Rally racing, partying, and just having a good time.

I'd like to meet:

I respect people with integrity and honor. I would love to meet anyone that can live in the moment. People that can enjoy life and what it has to offer them. I like people that appreciate good food and great wine, and like to indulge in both on a regular basis. If you don't have a sense of humor, we will not get along well. Like the immortal words of Ferris Bueller "Life moves pretty fast, if you don't stop to look around once in a while, you could miss it." I like people that stop to look around, and who will tell those around them how much they enjoy their presence, and friendship.
