About Me

I think my life has been a pretty interesting journey - sometimes because I've made it that way. I try to live so that I never regret missing out on life itself. When it comes down to it, I define myself as a sincere and good person - and am passionate and loyal to the important commitments I make. I'm an East Coast native (minus any accent), but I love being here in LA (that's right, I absolutely love it here). I have a successful career that I find exciting and motivating, but there is definitely more to life than a good job. I am grateful to have a close family and an amazing network of friends. I have a gazillion acquaintances but only a handful of people that I hold near and dear to my heart. I enjoy working out, going out with friends (dinner, parties, live music), going to movies, trying new things, learning new things, traveling, and sometimes just relaxing.

My Interests

Meeting new people, playing videogames (don't laugh, it's part of my job), spending money (can shop for hours), traveling to new places, working out, cooking, going to the movies, art museums, watching sports (everything except baseball), cheering for my Redskins, working on my truck, checking out new restaurants, trying new wines, gourmet foods, giving massages, good conversation, spending time with family, hanging out with my peeps and of course, having a good time wherever I'm at.
