I like to consider myself someone who is easy to be with and easy to talk to. I have made countless mistakes in my life and all of them add up to what I am today for which I am grateful. I love my friends and my family dearly. I certainly have my superficial side like any other man but I am hoping to find a deeper connection than I have ever experienced. I am genuine, articulate, and passionate.

I have invested 13 years in mortgage finance. I love what I do and I am good at it. It is a blessing to be able to accept one's karma. I like to take advantage of the wonderful weather and all the fantastic things this city has to offer.

Articulating myself. Slow dancing. Singing in the shower. Softball/Baseball. Quoting lines from my favorite shows and movies. Kissing. Planning trips. Fixing problems. Public speaking. I am a wiz at getting from point A to B.

I am genuine and honest. I don't take myself too seriously.

Books.....I love The Great Gatsby....I like The Shack and I really like books about WWII. I read a ton of political content on the internet. (Andrew Sullivan, David Frum, Ezra Klein, Matthew Yglesias...lots of political blogs)

I love the movie Rushmore, Anchorman, Adaptation, Eternal Sunshine for the Spotless Mind movies with depth in humor or drama. I can quote lines from Caddyshack, Vacation, Stripes, Office Space, Anchorman and pretty much every Seinfeld episode.

I think the Colbert Report is hysterical and The Wire was the best television show ever made.

I love Wilco but my mother raised me on The Beatles, Motown, Cat Stevens, Fleetwood Mac, and the great music of the 50's and 60's. I think I have great taste in music:)

My Iphone, A relationship with God, Good friendship, Ohio State Football, California mornings and good coffee.

Existential questions of why I am here, am I serving God, my fellow man,etc. Who is God? Why is He/She/It so Mysterious? What are the odds that the third planet in a solar system could have a moon that titled it 23.5 degrees on its axis which allows to have a seasonal ecosystem and support human life? Will Ohio State win the Rose Bowl? What is the quickest way to work this morning?

With my friends out to dinner, movie, concert, etc. Trying to find good live music.

I don't like sushi. My midwestern palate can't handle the texture. I am sorry.

1) Identify with me
2) People would say you are a good friend
3) Enjoy witty banter
4) Value personal growth and self awareness
5) Like the movie Rushmore
