The name Anders was bestowed upon me without my acquiescence, but these days I have to repeat myself less in introductions thanks to the tv show Workaholics.

Originally from North Carolina, I'm a San Diego native and UCLA alum residing on the west side. I have a tendency to gravitate toward the beach, & on weekends I'm most likely chillin near the Venice boardwalk.

I consider life to be a learning experience, questionable decisions are inevitable. I appreciate shameless unconventionality sans boisterous flamboyance. Dive bars, small music venues, and dressing down are recurring themes in my lifestyle, but I'll throw on a black tie for good measure every once in a while.

Working as an environmental consultant in Santa Monica, enforcing environmental justice against industry's top polluters such as BP, Chevron, Exxon, etc. Otherwise floating around the city of angels exploring underground local music venues and avoiding the club scene. To stay active I generally try to play basketball, run, or play beach volleyball a few times a week.

showing up, weaving through crowds at concerts, and remaining oblivious to trends.

how powerful it is for someone to convince oneself of something, energy resources consumption and management, the accessibility of quality education in the U.S., human impacts on the environment, how tendencies of human behavior have shaped expectations and hierarchies in society, physics makes the world go round. question everything.

in the mix.

wouldn't exactly be private if posted on an online dating profile. This is a paradox.

you enjoy the beach, sports, live music, intellectually stimulating conversation, and if you can help me pick out bananas at the grocery store. being colorblind is rough.
