Hi there! I am new to DC so I am settling into a new job and going to a lot of happy hours. I'm a Digital Analyst, which means I do a lot of work with social media and online advertising in order to drive engagement around social issues.

I like to unplug after work and just relax or chill with friends. I can have fun pretty much anywhere - whether it's watching the game (I'm a Bulls fan) or going out on H Street. I am easygoing and I like to laugh (especially at Louis CK standup or SNL).

Outside of work, I like to do kickboxing classes, play tennis, cook, and crash house parties. I follow politics pretty avidly and I am always amazed at how Stephen Colbert stays in character.

Making guacamole, recommending great bars & restaurants, turning anything into a competition, recalling useless pop culture facts, keeping in touch with friends.

people tend to comment on my eyes, lips, or smile.

Books: Confederacy of Dunces, A Farewell To Arms, Slaughterhouse-Five, Calvin and Hobbes, anything by J.D. Salinger. Currently reading Bossypants, by Tina Fey.

Movies: Anything with Al Pacino. My favorite movie is probably Scent of a Woman. I love most movies directed by Quentin Tarantino and Clint Eastwood, movies with Daniel Day-Lewis, Anchorman, The Princess Bride, The Kids Are All Right, How Stella Got Her Groove Back, She's Gotta Have It, Black Dynamite...the list goes on

Shows: I am all about The Wire! And Arrested Development, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Community, Parks and Rec. Currently watching Lost (I know, I'm really behind)

Music: I'm into classic rock and hip hop and a lot of things in between. Constantly updating my spotify playlists. Currently listening to The Weeknd, Miguel, Kendrick Lamar, Solange, Alicia Keys, Coldplay, Nas, Santigold, Kanye.

Food: Where to begin? Homemade smoothies, avocados, strawberries with nutella, SUSHI, cheese fries, steak. My favorite cuisines are probably Japanese, Chinese, and Indian. Also now I'm hungry.

how awesome it would have been to be a cast member of All That. Also, whatever happened to Missy Elliott?

Enjoying good company, good food, & good beer. Hopefully dancing at some point. Definitely ordering tacos.

Once, I illegally crossed the Mexican border (seriously...maybe I'll tell you about it sometime).

I am also really good at chess!

You are confident and not afraid to be yourself; you enjoy laughing your ass off and can crack a few jokes; you want to get beaten at pool; you are down-to-earth and can carry a conversation. I am attracted to men who are a healthy mix of intelligent and confident; if you don't think you are smart or interesting then I probably won't either. It also doesn't hurt if you can throw down in the kitchen.
