About Me

I recently relocated from New York City to Seattle. Music is my passion. I'm an aspiring audio producer. I'm very laid back, sometimes shy and extremely tame and polite. My main hobbies are photography and journalism. I love to write, shoot artistic photographs, compose music, read, contemplate, travel, learn and meet new people. I'm very adventurous, passionate and motivated. I'm not a "party" person at all. I don't drink or do drugs and only partake in the night life on rare occasions. I'm not offended by those who do, but it's just not my thing. I hate labels and misconception. I'm religious but I'm not a fan of organized religion. I live my life like a business and I have no time or waste of energy for drama, stress and petty bullshit. Immaturity and dishonesty are my biggest pet peaves and I won't tolerate disrespect. I'm all about old-fashioned romance and security. I'm complex without the usual annoyances, opinionated, and I love to be intrigued. I'm big on atmosphere and energy. I want to conquer the entertainment business world. I'm beyond driven and won't except less than what I set out to achieve. My life is a work in progress.

My Interests

recording studios, photography, journalism, music, film, fashion, parks, coffee houses, religion, art, bookstores, theatre, concerts, clothing design, culture, disney channel, sound design, snuggling, traveling, museums, brooklyn, marketing, business and law, old school glamour, cable tv, magazines, great conversation, debates, hockey, and choo-choo will destroy you!

I'd like to meet:

I hate liars, back-stabbers, hypocrites, ignorant americans, immature assholes, shit talkers and random ex-girlfriends. Otherwise I'd like to meet and network with friendly and intelligent people.

An entrance leading toward endless hallways of purity

It's odd how time alters things, how moods change and broken pieces are either fixed or discarded. It's amazing how even the hearts and names carved in trees out-live the friendships. You can capture ...
