I try not to take myself too seriously. Humor is very important to me. I try to stick with comedy when it comes to tv and movies. I use sarcasm liberally. I love making people laugh, it makes me happy. I’m looking for someone who can make me laugh, and gets my humor.

I’m an analytical thinker. I think in straight lines, but I have a creative side too. I was a big band geek in high school, and have recently started playing my trumpet again in a soul band. I want to start playing piano again too, and learn some Ben Folds. I like to debate issues, but am careful to keep it respectful. I’m open minded and am always ready to allow someone to convince me of something. I’m looking for someone who is smart, intellectually curious, creative, and keeps me on my toes.

I love my job. I enjoy the intellectual stimulation, the opportunity to creatively strategize, and the ability to interact with a lot of different people. But it’s really important to me that I have a full life outside of work. I enjoy playing golf and tennis. I love going out to eat and watching live music. My favorite spots for music are Restaurant Magnus and the Union Terrace. I grew up on jazz, but I enjoy any type of music as long as it has some soul. My favorite restaurants are Lao Laan-Xang, Magnus, and Muramoto.
