I am musical, polite, and honest.
My Self-Summary
I have been in New York for over 2 years now. I moved here from
Western, NY and its the best decision I've ever made. When you look
at the opportunities, the people, the surroundings and just the
cities overall energy, there is just so much to take in. I never
seem to get bored. And it's always great to meet people who
continue to explore the city
What I’m doing with my life
I worked in the music industry for about 5 years. I worked in
pretty much every aspect of it you can think of (labels, Radio, PR,
management, booking, etc). This past year, I have decided to take a
break and try some new things. I do love music and art and I plan
on going back to it in the near future.
I’m really good at
random games and activities like Rock-Paper-Scissors, Thumb
wrestling, four squares, four corners, marbles, and a bunch of
other kids games I should have grown out of already.
The first things people usually notice about me
I would probably have to say my height because I am a little taller
then most. I have had some people say my eyes or my smile. I
dunno..its difficult to say.

I spend a lot of time thinking about
recently, I would say places I want to travel. I haven't done a
great deal of that until recently. I just went to Spain for the
first time earlier this year and now I am looking for other places
(both national and international) that I would really like to see.
Otherwise, I think about a great deal of things. I always seem to
be looking up or reading the most random things that interest me at
the moment. Too many to list.
On a typical Friday night I am
My Friday nights are not really that typical. Sometimes I am going
out with my friends to a show or a bar. Sometimes we are just
kicking it low key at someones place. And sometimes I am just
staying in. I actually prefer going out on a weekday night because
it isn't nearly as crowded and just more relaxing out. But if
others are down to go out and make the most of a friday evening,
then I am game too.
You should message me if
you are someone living the New York City area would likes to go out
and explore new parts of the city. If you enjoy going to concerts
(big and small) movies (mainstream and independant) art openings,
bars, coffee shops, and anything else you can think of that is fun
here. Sometimes it feels like people (including myself) get caught
up in there small group of people to do stuff with and I think its
good to expand that as much as possible. So I guess okcupid is as
good as anyplace to start.
