About Me

..
#1 I'm not Filipino or Mexican. I'm Salvadorean.
I've got ADD...tend to talk a lot. Always saying something funny or outrageous. But if you trigger the right topic, I can have a completely intelligent conversation with you. I always keep and stay positive no matter how crappy the situation.
I love a good meal...Enjoy good beer and wine...I can spend so much time talking about beer. My taste for alochol has grown into Scotch whisky's. I even got myself a small bar area to keep all my goodies. I age my beer, that's how crazy I am :)
I truely enjoy staying active. Krav Maga -> don't get me started on how much I LOVE IT either. A nice bike ride to get away from the daily grind.
Driving and hearing the engine purr. Why else did I buy the G35 for? Just move when you see me coming.
If I could do something else other than IT Consulting...I would be a race car driver or a brewmaster. Update -> The plan by 35 if alls well, to open up a watering hole

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Open minded and positive personalities. Interested in experiencing new cultures, food and customs. Why live in a bubble? Someone interested in traveling the world culturally, culinaryly and through a alcoholic beverages. We only live once and it all goes by too quickly!
A woman that can cook! That's so hard to find in LA, unless she's a mid-west transfer :P.
