Hello ladies. I'm an easy going, fun, honest, and thoughtful guy who's looking for his partner in crime. I have a job, a car, and my own place. Given all that according to Alice Cooper I should also have a woman but I don't so alas, here I am. I'm originally from Portland, OR and have been in LA about 7 years now. I enjoy cooking, music, outdoors, the beach, etc...

I can be fairly shy at first but after I get to know you a bit I can be quite funny.

My personal mantra is "The sky is never the limit!"

I'm working at a YouTube network called Fullscreen as the Head of Network Operations. It's not at all what I thought I'd be doing but I love my job and wouldn't trade it for anything!

I've also been developing a music video game for a few years now. We recently were funded and have gone into beta. It's a very exciting time!

Hiking, bowling, frisbee golf, cooking, and vocal impressions.

How dashingly handsome I am... DUH! I get lots of comments on the color of my hair/beard and the color of my eyes.

Food: Can I eat it? I'm a total foodie and a beer snob. I can enjoy everything from a 5-course sit down at Spaggo to grubbing down on some T-Bell. I also really enjoy scotch.

Movies: Alien, The Fifth Element, District 9, Bleu, Pan's Labyrinth, Seven Samurai, 28 Days Later, Star Wars, etc... I'm a big sci-fi fan.

TV: I don't watch too much episodic TV as I really don't have the time to get too involved in shows. That being said Tosh.O, The Soup, Jeopardy, Attack of the Show, Louis, Breaking Bad, and The Walking Dead are among my favorites! Portlandia is a recent addition to my repertoire. Being from Portland this show is so freaking funny.

Music: I listen to a very wide variety of music. My early influences were The Beach Boys and Michael Jackson. These days I listen to classical, sludge metal, doom metal, and folk metal predominantly. Agalloch, Jucifer, Alcest, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, and Boris are all high on my list. This is not the screamo metal that you are probably thinking of. It has many more ebbs and flows. I swear I'm not a hipster... :-p I've also made a bit of an effort to get into electronic music lately. About all I don't like musically is most rap and modern pop country. Other than that it's fair game. Music is very central to my life so finding someone I'm compatible with is important to me.

1) Friends and family
2) A kitchen to cook in
3) A stable job
4) Good music
5) Good salt (the single most important ingredient in cooking)
6) Hot water... Seriously... Wait till you don't have it for a few days... Hot showers are amazing!

Where my next vacation is going to be. Right now it's between Prague and Sydney.

Unwinding from the week at home or out for drinks with friends.

Hmmm... How about some interesting facts instead! I've been to all 50 states, I can sing two notes at the same time, and I'm on several Japanese websites due to my tenure as a set technician on reality TV crews.

That being said I will admit to DVRing Jeopardy. :-P

***MINIMUM BARRIER FOR ENTRY***

You have a job
You have a car
You like going to concerts and are willing to go (occasionally) to a metal show with me
You have been forthright in your profile

You? I'm looking for something real. I'm not here for a hook up. I would like a good woman in my life who will love, respect, and support me. Lots of laughter is also a necessity. I want to be that for someone else as well. Please be actually available and looking. A job and a car will work in your favor as well as you should enjoy having someone cook for you. If all this piques your interest send me a message and let's talk!

Also, if you can tell me the correct term for the first five characters of my screen name on here.
