I'm a recovering lawyer who loves her new(ish) career because, happily, it rarely feels like work, and it's a great way to meet people. I also love: spending time with family and friends, volunteering with the elderly, and using my foreign language skills (I speak French and Spanish - my German's much rustier). Last but definitely not least, I’m a big fan of dogs, especially mine (he's probably a shepherd/collie mix, but I can’t confirm because he’s not talking). I'm looking for an amazing man who knows himself well and has a clear sense of what he wants for the future, and who loves life and dogs (or at least likes the latter).

I'm warm-hearted and a good listener, and I can admit when I’m wrong. I'm looking for someone who shares these qualities and who is kind, bright, caring, marriage-minded and full of life and humor. If this resonates for you, let's talk and see if there's a connection.

These days, I'm often told that I look like Anne Hathaway. I have brown hair and am on the paler side, but beyond that, I don't see it.

Reading: The Economist and The WSJ
Movies: My Cousin Vinny, Bowfinger, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Dinner Game (French comedy), and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Food: Sushi, Italian, and I love salads too
Music: U2, Alicia Keyes, Bach, some Carrie Underwood
TV: Arrested Development, Modern Family, Person of Interest, Downton Abbey

I hope to have meaningful relationships with family and friends throughout life as well as ample food, shelter and good health. And I hope my wonderful dog will be in my life (and also in good health) for many years to come.

The future, politics and world news, family & friends.

How OkC's robot makes quiver suggestions - 50% seem to be a total miss. (Glass half full though, def not the case with all of them.)

You're kind, smart, and looking for your partner/best friend (with whom you'll also have great chemistry, of course!). And while level of observance isn't really an issue for me, I'd like my partner to either be Jewish (practicing or not) or on his way to becoming Jewish.

Also, tattoos and smoking are dealbreakers for me.
