My self-summary
I walk very fast. I am never bored. Every morning I try to bike ride or ice skate. I bring a book to the subway and listen to podcasts when walking (any good recommendations?). I'm always the one planning the ski vacations and trips to Montauk.

I use bar soap, never bodywash. I take my coffee black and my pizza plain (or with pepperoni).

At night, I much prefer Netflix with a bottle of red or board games (Taboo anyone?).

I get really into the holidays like a little kid – Halloween costumes, Christmas decorations, etc.

Looking for a “nice girl” – the girl next door. She much prefers the "butterflies/honeymoon" phase to "the chase", and she's into nice guys as well. She's definitely chatty and fun, loves little kids, and might keep a favorite stuffed animal from her childhood. She has an affinity for weekend getaways and might enjoy sharing tennis, biking or some other hobby with me. She would compromise by watching the Jets or Yankees with me in exchange for a sappy chick flick afterwards.
What I’m doing with my life
I was a bond trader at Merrill Lynch after graduating in 2007 from Penn, then went snowboarding for 4 months in Vail, Colorado, then corporate strategy consultant. I am now creating my own company on the side and would love your feedback on my business idea (95% you will want the product). I do paid and volunteer SAT tutoring through NY Cares.
I’m really good at
The Rubik's Cube
Making the cashier smile
Brewing the perfect cup of home-made coffee
Reciting TV/movie quotes (NYC Seinfeld Bar Trivia Champs)
RSVP-ing (a lost etiquette)
Making ice cream sundaes
The first things people usually notice about me
"You're always smiling." I also quote movies way too often, ask too many questions, lots of energy, friendly, and I still have the "kid in me."
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Books "Guns, Germs, and Steel" about how geography was/is the determining factor for the relative development of societies;
"A People's History of the United States";
"The Big Short" about the housing crisis;
"The 4-Hour Workweek", "The 4-Hour Body" and "The 4-Hour Chef," by Tim Ferriss, my hero.
"How Soccer Explains the World."
"The Paradox of Choice."
"Unaccountable."

Music: Lonely Island.

On TV I watch sports (Jets, Yankees, Real Madrid), Modern Family, Seinfeld, The Simpsons (old ones only), Family Guy, Entourage, Jeopardy, Game of Thrones.

For cuisines: Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby, Skor Bars Reese's PB cups, pizza.

Broadway: Les Mis, JC Superstar, Spelling Bee
The six things I could never do without
Intriguing question: Besides the obvious family, friends, oxygen, etc.

1. Reading (the geek with the book next to you on the subway is me)
2. Wikipedia
3. DVR (best invention of the past five years)
4. My juicer
5. Duct tape
6. Sports: golf, snowboarding, tennis, bike riding, etc.
6.1. Speaking Spanish (such a beautiful language)
6.2. My baby nephew
6.3. Podcasts - Yale posts their class lectures for free, makes waiting for the subway fun!
I spend a lot of time thinking about
1. The business/psychology of online-dating (like it's my job, literally)
2. Vacation or weekend getaway planning
3. Is there an afterlife?
4. Is female text message response rate inversely proportional to romantic interest?
5. Why do people still overpay for branded drugs when generics are legally required to be exactly the same?
On a typical Friday night I am
Probably at a bar because that's where all my friends go -- but I'm happier when I'm at a beach house building a bonfire and eating smores
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I bring my own Vermont maple syrup to pancake diners.

In first grade I had all perfect scores on my spelling tests until the last one when I spelled "anything" wrong (forgot the "H"). I went into the bathroom and cried.

I own Superman underwear...and Batman underwear...

I think little kids are very cute.
I’m looking for
  • Girls who like guys
  • Ages 21–27
  • Near me
  • Who are single
  • For new friends, long-term dating, short-term dating, activity partners
You should message me if
You are smiling in your picture, consider ice skating or bike riding a good first (or second) date, send birthday and Christmas cards, like guys who call instead of text, and agree that Ginger Ale is an underrated beverage.
