From the midwest. I'm mellow & creative. I work a lot. I love the beach, yoga, and Krav Maga. Although OkCupid claims I'm "Less Literary" my nightstand is overflowing with books. I'm a podcast addict, Joe Rogan Experience, LondonReal, Hardcore History, and Coast to Coast AM. I crave knowledge. I'm drawn to fringe topics and the mysteries of life. INFJ sometimes INFP.

I'm a surface and textile designer and was just picked up by a fabric house. My collection launched in February. I'm working hard to start my own wallpaper company. Once that picks up, I plan on quitting my day job as a machinist where I program and run a 4-axis mill, do a bunch of welding, laser cutting, and other "really cool shit."

Art, design, making things, parallel parking, nicknames...

My tattoos and my eyes.

Books:
Currently reading The 4 Hour Body

Youtube has some really great shows too. I follow the SciShow channel which keeps up with and explains what's currently going on in the science world.

Music:
I've had 40 Day Dream by Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros stuck in my head for the last few days. One of my all time favorite songs is Back That Ass Up by Juvenile. I love hearing new music, but I'm not into the music snob scene.

Food:
Due to food allergies my diet closely resembles the Paleo Diet. If it were my choice I'd live on dark chocolate and wine, but my body has something else in mind. Bummer alert: I also can't drink alcohol. Cue the sad trombone.

-New ideas
-Following my passions
-Inspiration

Starting my business has consumed a great portion of my thoughts lately as well as finishing illustrating my second book, and hacking my body/health so I can get the most of life. I also want to own my own home, how the hell am I going to pull that off? Lately, I've been thinking shipping crates are the answer...

It varies, sometimes cooking dinner with friends, other times walking state street to stare at the bar goers, or often designing away in the comfort of my home.

I might still be able to break boards with a running jump side kick.

You're over the bar scene, responsible, employed, and healthy. You like road trips, cooking, going on walks, and quiet nights in. If you're shy, religious, a smoker, and/or really skinny, we're not a match. Also, I'm quite independent and looking for someone that can respect that. :)
