I am Logical, Calm, and Conservative.

My Self-Summary

This isn't really going to be a "summary" based on the definition of the word as it reads like a mini-bio:

I was born and raised in a small township in Southwest Ashtabula County, Ohio. I was homeschooled by my mom and dad (the real way, where we got together with lots of our friends who also homeschooled making the only - and wildly inaccurate - argument against homeschooling moot). I started attending Lakeland Community College at age 15 and received my Associate's Degree in Business Management. I have been working at my current place of employment since 2003 and have moved from Intern to Director of IT during that time. I currently live (rent free) in my parents' second home while I save money to buy a house (probably next year).

My family consists of my mom and dad (who, believe it or not, have only been married to each other), my two younger brothers, and my younger sister (making me the oldest of four).

Most people intially assume that I am very smart. While it is true that I do spend a lot of time reading and learning, I would say that I am actually more logical than smart. I tend to arrive at answers rather than know them, and I usually wind up being correct.

Socially, I do not tend to have a lot of friends as I believe in quality over quantity. People who are my friends are people who I have spent a large portion of my life knowing, and who I trust in and care for deeply. I also tend to be relatively cold to new people in foreign settings until I warm up, at which point I can take over the conversation if you let me (a flaw, I know).

What I’m doing with my life

Right now I manage IT and workflow at a small TPA firm in Mentor, OH. I am involved in local politics and serve my community as the elected member of my county central committee for my district. I also hold the Vice Presidency for the Ashtabula County YR.

I’m really good at

Getting answers, solving problems, giving encouragement, and generally being helpful in any situation.

The first things people usually notice about me

I tend to be a background player as much as possible, however in the event that something is being done wrong (or chaotically) I have no problem taking the reigns and steering. That being said, the first thing that is usually noticed about me is that I am always willing to help and that my help is always well thought out and planned.

As far as I know, my physical appearance does not lend itself to attention grabbing (at least I've never heard anyone comment on it).

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books/Authors:
The Bible (my Bible, believe it or not), Tolkein, Lewis, Twain, Dickens, Shakespeare, Peretti, and Dekker.

Movies:
Many of the Marvel movies are pretty good, LOTR and Star Wars are enjoyable as well. I particularly enjoy old classic films. I have to add that Gran Torino is probably the single greatest film ever made. If you have not watched it, do so immediately. If you did not like it, what on earth is wrong with you?

Music:
I'm not picky... just about anything other than rap/R&B suits me just fine.

Food:
I hate Chinese food... and by Chinese I mean anything with strange meat, weird music, and a side of rice. It literally makes me ill whenever I eat it.

The six things I could never do without

Since I know that God's love is all I need, I can do without everything else if needed.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Whatever current problem I am solving (for either myself, someone else, or humanity in general).

On a typical Friday night I am

Either at home hanging out with friends (either watching TV, playing games, or just eating and talking) or going out to a movie.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I'm not perfect... regardless of how much I want to be.

You should message me if

You need a steady rock, a loyal friend, or a problem solver. Also, if you just want to meet a new group of friends in the NE Ohio area.
