Big family, bigger heart! Eternal optimist/idealist (still slightly cynical).
I enjoy trying out & discovering new places, activities, sports, people, music, foods, games, and traveling. Passionate about music, family, health, friends and art. Longboarding, disc golf, Michael Franti, and yoga have saved my life. Do enjoy hitting the club and getting down as much as hiking in the woods, going to a concert, or staying in to watch a movie.
I'm very open minded, down to earth and laid back. I can be witty, silly and sarcastic, or contemplative, reserved and intense. Always enjoy a challenge;) Consider myself a creative yet logical multi-tasker. I can play drums, guitar and bass. I'm an open book with my heart on my sleeve, a badass with a heart of gold. Need to workout at least 4 times a week to stay sane. I'm very affectionate but also enjoy my independence. Once you're in, consider yourself family.

I should really update this...

Paramedic in training @ Malcom x College. Hope to one day work w the CFD, on a helicopter rescue team out west or in Hawaii. Workin three part-time jobs in the meantime. Love concerts/music, brewing beer, disc golf, deep conversations, yoga, longboarding, exercise, & being outdoors.

Need to be more than content. I need to be fulfilled with what I do and who I am as a man. Balance is key with all things in life and I would like someone who could help me focus when I need it and let loose with when appropriate, someone who is open minded and adventurous yet has a level head and is confident. I am more than willing to meet you half-way (literally & figuratively) but probably wont bend over backwards for something I don't believe in.

Proving you wrong, discovering new music, spelling, beatboxing, recycling, random trivia, Twister, playing drums, brewing beer, staring contests, snoozing, cunlings.

People always say I look familiar, like some actor or someone they've met before.

Cereal & coffee are the best and quickest way to start the day!
Day planner (yes, I still use one of those)

Self-improvement, spirituality, saving the world, the light spectrum, how many megapixels the human eye can see in, perception, accountability, sustainability, love, overpopulation.

Taking it semi-easy at a friends house or local bar, possibly attending a concert, or workin Durkins.

You want to have fun, interesting, and exciting conversation over some type of beverage.
You wanna jam!
You live in the Wicker Park/Humbolt Park/Bucktown/Logan Square neighborhoods.
You wanna catch a concert
You wanna paint
