I grew up in Boston, went to a small liberal arts college in Maine, went to work in NYC, but decided it wasn't for me. So I uprooted myself and moved to the bay area.

In many ways, I consider the bay area to be my "home", since I have lots of family and friends from the area.

I tend to think of myself as an open-minded and relaxed guy, but someone who also is ambitious and goal oriented.
I'm also someone who really loves my family! I think that no matter what anyone says family is central to one's life!

Also I got to admit, I love dogs. Its my aspiration to get a Golden Doodle!

I'm a business consultant to biotech, pharmaceutical, and medical device companies. Previous, I dabbled with the idea of going to medical school or doing medical research.

After having worked in corporate america for the last two years, I'm evaluating the option of moving into the tech industry, as I've found the biotech industry to be too conservative. I also consider myself to be an entrepreneurial, creative, and innovative individual, so the tech industry should make a good fit.

Cooking, listening, giving advice, relating to people, making amazing conversation and being silly, and bringing out the best in people.

My smile, my story telling, and my energetic personality

If you were to look at my Spotify account you would see everything from Vampire Weekend to AVICII to Lady Gaga to Frank Sinatra to 90s boy bands. I pretty much like music of all kinds, except for country.

In terms of shows, I'm a big fan of New Girl, Revenge, RuPaul's Drag race (... its a guilty pleasure), and True Blood. Also I'm avid sports fan so I watch Sports Center and Baseball Tonight.

Food wise, I pretty much eat anything. I love French, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Ethiopian, and Italian food. Particularly, Ahi Tuna, fresh oysters, slow drip coffee, and creme brulee have a soft spot in my heart.

I haven't been watching many movies lately, but my favorites are Silence of the Lambs, the Dark Knight, Somethings Gotta Give, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and Ms. Doubtfire.

I'll admit I haven't had lot of time to read lately, but among my favorite authors/books are:
Murakami
David Sedaris
Steve Job's biography (I know...I'm a bandwagon NY Times best seller reader...but it was an AMAZING book)
Barack Obama's Audacity of Hope

1) My family and friends
2) My dog
3) Amazing and entertaining conversation
4) Good food
5) iPhone
6) Travel and memories

The future, food, friends, family, politics, science, business, design, and technology

Also, sadly I spend lots of time thinking about how to make powerpoint presentations pretty and writing excel formulas :(.

usually out at dinner with friends, pre-gaming, dancing my ass-off, or an easy night in.

Secrets, secrets they are so fun :)! As a friend said to me "you never reach up a lady's dress without taking her to a nice dinner first". I'm that kind of lady ;).

If you're intellectual, confidence, charismatic, attractive and have a good sense of who you are as a person (or you're working towards it)! But most important, you want to make a difference in the world!
