i'm a visual artist, an avid music lover, beer and wine enthusiast, and i LOVE to travel. i'm into film, technology, cycling, cultural exploration, and all-around having fun with friends and family (and even strangers). i also indulge in sushi, frisbee golf, driving, and anything on the internets.

there's much more, just ask...

still figuring it out. guess i'll always be in some way or another, especially being single and open to all possibilities.

i love my career and always indulge in my passions (listed above)

putting things in perspective, seeing the big picture.
speaking of which, i'm pretty fast at google image searching.

i'm a good guy, funny, sarcastic.
i tend to be VERY impulsive. just get up and go...

funny thing: people (complete strangers) tend to ask me out of the blue, "where are you from?" i guess they can't tell what my ethnicity is and feel compelled to ask. cracks me up!

books: i have to admit i don't read many books. mostly just online news articles and art/music reviews. i also suffer from chronic wikipedia exploration. i do hope to make time to start reading classic literature as well as study philosophy part time.

when i'm creating art or just hanging with friends and family, my mind stays focused on the moment.

when i'm by myself not doing much of anything, my mind shoots off in 900 different directions.

i don't keep a typical schedule outside of work.

you are fun, candid, and open.
