Where do I begin? I spent my formative years in Nigeria, but most of my adult life has been living here in the United States( i have lived in Miami, the Northwest where I went to college, spent some time in So-Cal and now the Bay Area- so I consider myself both American and Nigerian(I speak my native/tribal language of Yoruba fluently also. I have citizenship in both countries, and they are dear to my heart as they've helped shape who I have become. My favorite US cities are Atlanta, San Francisco, Oakland, New York, Miami, Portland, Seattle, New Orleans and Memphis. I think it's hard to pigeonhole me, as I am interested in a wide variety of things. I am equally comfortable watching the symphony, live concerts, attending museums/art shows, as I am watching/attending a live NBA , soccer or NFL game. I can chat about sports and movies in depth, and be equally comfortable talking about politics, culture, tech , art and music.

I would describe myself as an outgoing, fun , intelligent, worldly, and physically active person- I enjoy working out and generally staying fit and healthy.

I am very curious about the world around me. I enjoy going out to live events, dancing, enjoying good food/wine/drinks, watching movies/film(independent and mainstream), good music, being active, the outdoors. good conversation, meeting diverse groups of people, traveling when I can and an avid sports fan-love the NBA, soccer, college football, and NFL, but I dig baseball during the playoffs and will watch some hockey with folks.

By the way, I haven't had a chance to answer all of the match questions on here, but I might be able to get to them as time progresses. I think my profile does give a general jist of who I am. Though I will readily admit, I have never been on the online dating scene before, and this is my first try. Hey, you gotta live a little and try new things. You never know where the adventure might lead you, or what great or lasting positive things might come of it. Looking forward to the ride :)

I work in the advertising and media industry presently, in a marketing management role. Right now, I am developing in my career and continuing to improve on my professional skills, because I have big and ambitious goals.

Also working on further building my material resources so I can continually give back and in my own way, help make the world a better place. I am also currently continually expanding my social pool- I still have my close/good friends, but I am open to making new ones also-you can never meet enough cool/interesting people. The world can be a wonderful oyster.

Writing(prose writing, features and expressive), exercising(weight lifting, running, yoga & cardio- I am physically strong), cooking, mingling/blending socially with people/making people feel at ease and being comfortable, hospitality, nurturing/protecting, assertive communication, adventurous while still being responsible, giving great massages/foot rubs/neck rubs, kissing/making out, dancing, some sports/games, making good film/movie/music recommendations if I am asked or solicited for it.

Other stuff you can discover if you get to know me in person, rather than me rattling off here about it:).

Usually, my eyes, my smile( I have high cheekbones), my fit physique(depending on what I am wearing) and my personality I guess :)

Depends on my mood..I am flexible..Could go out or hang with friends, stay indoors, catch a good movie or show, dancing, hitting a live show, good lounges/club, plays, the symphony. I am flexible and could be down for whatever if you have a suggestion

We should probably do this over conversation/chat and meet in person first . Maybe over a drink or two, I'll reveal something juicy or intimate ;)

If you found anything I had to say here interesting, intriguing or funny and want to hang out.
