I'm goofy, smart, sarcastic and always down for an adventure. I came out to the bay area two years ago to escape the doldrums of the Midwest. It was just convenient to have a job out here too.

Beyond working of course, I stay busy with hobbies and friends. I had considered myself a "Jack of all trades" sorts, dabbling in a variety of interests, but that just stemmed from yearning for learning. I've really pared my hobbies down to just a couple things like the gym, seeing live music, and learning an instrument (easily my favorite!).

People usually notice that I'm upbeat.

Movies: Hook, Harold and Maude, Rounders, Casino, When Harry met Sally, Seven, Stranger than Fiction, Independence Day, Snatch, Good Will Hunting

Favorite Books: Magazines are more my thing. Right now I subscribe to Relix and Business Week.

Music: Head and the Heart, Kid Cudi, Rome, Young the Giant, Sallie Ford and the Outside Sound, Citizen Cope, Led Zeppelin, Gustav Holst, Best Coast, Ludacris, Pink Floyd, Common, Grateful Dead, ratatat, etc.

I'm out meeting friends for drinks or seeing a band. Occasionally I get sucked into a Netflix movie that got at least 4 stars and a decent score on rotten tomatoes.

I revel in how nice the occasional lazy Saturday can be.

Preferably if you can handle a nerdy joke and a shot of whiskey.
