My self-summary
Hey everyone!

I could list a bunch of random facts and character traits like "passionate", "fun to be with", "driven", etc... but I'd rather let you find out most of that for yourself. Besides, I feel like a lot of people just ramble on about themselves generically, hoping you might see something you'll like. Short and sweet: I'm a musician, I own my own business, I love what I do, and I do it well. I have an amazing family, and the greatest friends imaginable. If you have more time, read on.

For you fellow psychology geeks, I am an INTJ... but am very close to the middle of the spectrum for each of the 4 measurements. So, I'm balanced, but difficult to classify. Around some people I'm the life of the party. But, just as often, I sit back and observe. I am very health conscious and physically active, and (to an extent) it's important to me that you are too. This is not to say I never let loose and relax in front of the TV with a bowl of something bad for me... And it's not to say you have to eat exactly the way I do. Here comes that word again...balance. Flip flops one day, tuxedo the next.

I'm looking for someone who is attractive, laid back, and easy going... A woman who can enjoy letting things happen naturally, but who is ultimately looking for a relationship. As far as the dynamic of that relationship, I'm not looking for dependence, nor am I looking for independence. What I want is interdependence... ya know, 1 + 1 = 11. Two people who are at similar places in life, having value of their own, coming together to evolve.

My friends would describe me as fun and extremely playful, but I'm definitely not afraid to have an opinion and stand up for what I believe in. That being said, I'm always willing to listen and try to understand an alternate point of view. I'm looking for someone with good energy who can keep me on my toes, teach me something new. Someone with integrity, good communication skills, a witty sense of humor, social awareness and maturity.

If you made it this far, I’m sure you have something to say. If you think we might be a good match, send me a message. But please do have a picture posted. I have one, you should too... us guys - even those of us who actually want to get to know you - are visual creatures!
What I’m doing with my life
Buying a house in the Fishtown area of Philly... Tour guides welcome.

hmmmm....(attach resume/bio here)

OK, back to the resume portion. Maybe I'm delusional, but I guess I'm just one of those freaks that believes people can actually do what they're passionate about for a living. I'm a musician. I hold jobs with orchestras in NY and Philly, play piano for events, do some contracting and consulting work, and teach private students on the side.

I eat fruits and veggies in obscenely large quantities, and I occasionally wear Fivefinger shoes. Consider yourself warned. :)
I’m really good at
sports, music, massages, playing nice with others, listening, communicating.
The first things people usually notice about me
I guess you'll just have to let me know.

...you watch this all the way through and laugh out loud at least twice. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7YIAWsyB1I&feature=player_embedded

...you are any of the following: kind, warm, a music geek, workout junky, someone who can carry on an intellectual conversation one minute, and act like a goofy 7 year old the next.
