Mix:

- 1 oz 100 proof New York style (without the abrasive edge)...

- 1/2 oz California lifestyle...

- Splash of lemon

Shake vigorously with ice and strain into a spotless highball. Garnish with a twist of quirky humor.

Then there are those other days I'm more like a JELL-O shot...

Savoring my time here in stunning San Francisco. I enjoy a great many things like hiking, running, cycling, or just popping into the local museums. My closest friends would describe me as passionate, kind, and intelligent and I like to think of myself a realist with an optimistic tilt.

Just finished an MBA while working at a tech company full time and assistant lecturing for some courses at Berkeley so ready to enjoy some free time again.

I love to travel and through work and vacation I've seen a lot of amazing places recently. In the past ~12 months I've had a chance to visit Brazil, Ireland, Romania, Moldova, Turkey, Dubai, Singapore, The UK, Portugal, Spain, South Africa, Japan and South Korea. Can't wait for what's next. And I try to make it back to visit my family and friends in NY at least twice a year.

Where to start?!?
Laughing... I love a good time.
Approaching the world with an open mind.

My smile.

An avid reader—particularly biography, history, and poetry—I'm also an insatiable music fan and at one time played sloppy drums in a college band. My musical tastes range from Radiohead to Brahms but my favorite bands are The Beatles, U2 and Sonic Youth.

Six, eh? Family, close friends, the sound of my niece and nephews giggling, good music, intelligent conversation, tea.

Ancient Greece & Rome (I used to teach Latin & Ancient Greek).

...you're authentic, beautiful, compassionate, intelligent, and optimistic. We share many passions but you also have interests of your own that you'll share with me (I've learned a lot from my most meaningful relationships). You're equally happy enjoying a quiet night making dinner and watching a movie together or having a legendary night out with friends.
