Passionate photographer with a quirky streak, tendency to quote movie lines and seek out strange new places,seeking a parter in crime. Originally from DC, as a kid, I was forced into exile to the cold land of upstate NY. Finally returning to my homeland, I aim to find the perfect photo, cuisine and explore what this world has to offer. While I love a good bar, I have not found the bar scene to be the best place to find someone, hence here I am.

Working full time, discovering what DC has to offer, attempting to discover how to turn lead to gold (no luck so far) and waiting for the weather to turn so I can enjoy the outdoors. Photography has been a hobby/passion of mine for years, so I will most definitely be out this summer, practicing my craft. I also love to teach photography to others and belong to a couple of photography meet ups. The job is fun, management has it's stresses and rewards and I love to get my employees motivated, so it works out for me.

Finding humor in life while still maintaining a serious side (when needed). Photography, analytical papers, cooking (always willing to try a new dish), quoting movie lines. I've been called a human GPS, a lightning rod for ghosts. After being pushed down a flight of stairs, it's hard to deny the existence of the great beyond.

My height. I've been told many times that I'm quite personable. I like to meet new people and build a rapport.

Books: Dune, anything by Tom Clancy and Dan Brown, Harry Potter, The Hobbit, religious history, I'm fascinated by the history of the Ark of the Covenant, which is due to my favorite movie Raiders of the Lost Ark. The Washington Post (Sunday edition for the comics)

Movies: I was a film major in college so anything by Steven Spielberg, Chris Nolan. I do have a soft spot for comic book movies yet I've never read a single comic book, comedies like Horrible Bosses, Meet the Parents and classic films from Citizen Kane, Dracula, Stalag 17, The Hill, Dog Day Afternoon to The Bicycle Thief.

Tv: Law and Order SVU, The Tudors, Downton Abby, Dr.Who, Top Gear, thank you Netflix!

Music: It's all over the place from Aerosmith and Metallica, to Enigma, DJ Tiesto, Motzart, etc. My morning commute isn't complete without the Kane Show on.

Food: I love to cook and attempt new dishes. Anything from Indian, Chinese, Cajun, Italian to my mom's Brisket (still can't get it quite right, must be a mom thing). I'm always up for trying the newest restaurant to an undiscovered hideaway.

Thunderstorms (I find them very relaxing)
A pen. Ya never know when you'll need one

What new dish to cook, what to do once the weather turns warm, why is this person ahead of me driving 15 miles under the limit, what is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow, the current state of global affairs and economics.

Out with friends at a good restaurant with a good conversation, catching a movie, sometimes plotting to take over the world and then having it backfire on me. Also I do love to poke around the city to check out the architecture and history.

You have the following:
A sense of humor
Appreciation for the arts (visual and audio)
adventurous personality
No cats (I'm allergic. While this wouldn't be a deal breaker, I'd rather not be sneezing around you).
Confidence and boldness. Honesty and directness is a huge thing for me.

I also appreciate someone who is mature. I'm over the drama games and prefer someone who's not afraid to be straight to the point.
