I am originally from South Carolina but moved to the DC area almost five years ago for graduate school to study International Economics. I've now settled in the area and have some more time to devote towards dating and relationships.

Working on a little bit of all of these in no particular order: music, sports, languages, travel, friends (and relationships).

coming up with something fun (and at times spontaneous) to do when friends can't agree on plans.

I am from the South but have no accent - it's possible!

Food: Thai, Nutella

Movies: I go to the movies often, sometimes to see the same movie again (Lincoln)...but the genre I most enjoy would probably be what Netflix recommendations might call "cerebral."

Books: All the King's Men

Music: U2, Of Monsters and Men, Fleet Foxes, LCD Soundsystem, Imagine Dragons, Two Door Cinema Club, Billy Joel, The Killers, Bruce Springsteen, Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, Bill Evans, John Williams, Bach, Thomas Newman.

Dinner or drinks out with friends or, after a particularly grueling week, recharging at home reading, watching a movie or listening to music. I'm usually out the next morning on a day trip or exploring some part of the area by bike or foot.

won't be documented on a free dating website.

you think we might have some things in common, you think I'm cute and would like to know more.
