I worked for a few years a professional opera singer. However, I found that music, as much as I loved it, wasn't where my passion was. So now I am working toward a legal career and I couldn't be happier with my choice.

I love politics. I can't help it, I am in law school. I love the law and politics and I like to talk about the law and politics. In fact, I like to talk about all of the things people aren't supposed to talk about in polite conversation: law, politics, religion, gay rights, reproductive rights, Supreme Court decisions, elections, you name it.

And I love to argue. If someone says something I disagree with or I think is wrong or stupid, I can't keep my mouth shut. You should know that going in.

I enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, rollerblading, swimming and such as long as they don't last overnight. I want to sleep inside. In a bed. I don't camp unless absolutely necessary.

I also love martial arts, theater (musical and straight), books, movies and I love Italian food.

I hate the gym, but I do work just to keep from getting out of control. I play racquetball quite a bit with my law school friends, but I am stocky and there is no getting around it. However, I am healthy and secure in who I am.

First year law student at Temple University. Working this summer in DC with the Navy JAG Corps at the Washington Navy Yard. After law school I would like to go into the Navy JAG Corps permanently. As that part of my career progresses . . . we'll see.

I am an excellent singer, a great cook, I can pivot plans on a dime, I am good at rolling with circumstances, and I am a great student of just about anything.

I listen very well and I give good advice. I also can tell when it is more important to stay quiet and just let someone vent.

I smile a lot.

Authors - Kahlil Gibran, Dan Brown, Gore Vidal, William Shakespeare, Anne Rice, Robert Jordan, J.K. Rowling, J.R.R. Tolkien, Terry Brooks, Jim Butcher...I could go on and on.

Movies - Anything but horror films. I have a soft spot for Rom Coms and Martial Arts films.

Music - I have two Master's degrees in music. I love anything but rap.

Food - Literally anything. I love food.

TV - The Rachel Maddow Show, Suits, HIMYM, Warehouse 13, Cover Affairs, Bones, Hawaii Five-0, NCIS (both of them), Modern Family, The Big Bang Theory, The New Normal, Project Runway, Top Chef, Happy Endings, and Elementary. (Side note, I am way to busy to actually watch all of these shows, but I do like them).

Family, friends, good food, good music, love, and adventure.

"Then said Almitra, Speak to us of Love. And he raised his head and looked upon the people, and there fell a stillness upon them. And with a great voice he said:
When love beckons to you, follow him, though his ways are hard and steep. And when his wings enfold you yield to him, though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you. And when he speaks to you believe in him, though his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the garden.
For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning. Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun, so shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.
Like sheaves of corn he gathers you unto himself. He threshes you to make you naked. He sifts you to free you from your husks. He grinds you to whiteness. He kneads you until you are pliant; and then he assigns you to his sacred fire, that you may become sacred bread for God's sacred feast.
All these things shall love do unto you that you may know the secrets of your heart, and in that knowledge become a fragment of Life's heart.
But if in your fear you would seek only love's peace and love's pleasure, then it is better for your that you cover your nakedness and pass out of love's threshing-floor, into the seasonless world where you shall laugh, but not all of your laughter, and weep, but not all of your tears."

I don't have a typical any night. I try to experience new things whenever I can.

I have a weakness for redheads. I don't know why, but it's there.

If you want to. Be forewarned though, I am looking for a relationship. Not that I am averse to sex, far from it, I am just tired of that being all.
