My self-summary
***UDPATE*** So, I've taken the last 6 months to travel in Asia, ski in the west and have a kick ass time. As a result, I've recently been called geographically undesirable. Now back in San Francisco on a more often basis, looking for work, finding work, looking for fun, finding fun (more often, also). Trying to ski what remains of the high-country snow in CA. Might have to resort to Shasta/Lassen soon. Also, getting geared up and training for AIDS Lifecycle in June! If you're riding, definitely get in touch!

California and San Francisco, in particular, and I are in a long term relationship, and we know that we're right for each other. After taking a break for a while, we're getting reacquainted with each other and sparking the old flame.

Skiing has always been a pretty large part of my life. Though, after living in a couple ski towns, playing a lot of pool, drinking a lot of pbr, making sure to wake up for dawn patrol powder turns before teaching toddlers how to make a pizza with their skis, it's clear to me that while mountain-life is fun, there is far more to experience and accomplish in this life that a remote ski town just can't offer right now. That was a long sentence.

People have been moving West for centuries. And there's a reason for that: California is the shit. I'm always up for an adventure and love finding new places, whether it’s in the middle of the city, up or down the coast, or in the mountains. I love swimming in alpine lakes, the ocean and natural hot springs. I love riding my bike(s). I love to cook whether its in (someone else's) fancy kitchen, or just some creek caught trout with spices and citrus out of my backpack.

I'm looking for someone who shares my love for the outdoors but is also drawn to the excitement of the city. Someone who likes to go out and meet new people, but also likes to stay in for the night, cook dinner together and share a bottle of wine (or two). Someone who loves music and is open to new music, like myself. Someone who takes care of themselves, physically, mentally, emotionally. Someone who knows how serious the world's problems are but who can still have a positive outlook and a sense of humor. Someone who I can learn from and be inspired by. Someone who likes to travel, see new places, experience new cultures. Someone who embraces change. Someone who especially enjoys a lazy day, because it’s a huge change from their busy life.
What I’m doing with my life
After seven straight years as a working stuff, I quit my job, threw off the chains of my cubicle and started traveling the world.

Now that I'm back, I'm enjoying free time, trying to ski and ride bikes and very passively looking into what's next for me.
I’m really good at

The first things people usually notice about me
That I'm way cooler and clearly more clever than all these guys ---->
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Ishmael, Cadillac Desert, The Guide, In Defense of Food, Non-Zero, the section in Into The Wild about Krakauer climbing the Devil's Thumb, anything written by Steinbeck or John Muir.


Hot Dog: The Movie, Inception, Point Break, Major League


I don't have a television, or cable, but I don't miss the daily show, and the interwebs provide me advertising-free modern entertainment


Live music, preferably outside, or albums in their entirety. I'm not going to either provide or read through an exhaustive list of artists...music always makes for good conversation, and I can usually hang.


I love food

My next meal.

On a typical Friday night I am
Apparently, no one here ever has a typical Friday night. I must be the square of the bunch.

But I digress. When living in SF, I was often on i-80 eastbound because its going to be an awesome weekend on Tahoe's north shore. Sometimes already gone for the weekend, using technology to be in two places at once.

In summer/fall, I might be taking off on some other out of town mission, or staying in the city, working a little later-ish and catching up with others on the tail end of happy hour, or going to bed early for a big saturday.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I was in a ska band in high school.
