I moved to the bay for undergrad a number of years ago, and fell in love with the entrepreneurial spirit, down to earth people, and beautiful environment of Northern California. I've been lucky enough to live, work and travel all over the world over the past few years, and am happy to be home again in my favorite city.

Currently I work in Sales Strategy and Operations at a large technology company. I love the company's focus on innovation and employee empowerment, and truly believe the products we create have/will change the world. The best job I ever had was teaching waterskiing to kids at a summer camp in the Sierras, and someday I want to find a job that let's me combine my love of technology with my passion for youth education.

Outside of work, I enjoy hanging out with family and friends doing almost anything outdoors including hiking, water-skiing, cycling, running, kayaking, and beach bumming. I am lucky to have a fantastic family, and I travel to SoCal often to spend time with them.

I also love to dance: was on the dance team in high school and college, and I still try to sneak in a few classes whenever I can.

Walking backwards! I used to be a campus tour guide in college and got plenty of practice. Also pretty good at figuring out public transportation in foreign countries. Oh and I seem to have a knack for telling identical twins apart - not sure how I developed that talent.

My smile :), or at least so I am told

I love anything cooked on the BBQ, S'mores, home grown veggies, anything with avocado, and I have an occasional weakness for raw cookie dough.

My favorite book is East of Eden, and right now I'm currently reading Behind the Beautiful Forevers: a moving, nonfiction story about life in one of Mumbai's largest slums. I like learning about new places and being transported to a different world. Often makes me even more grateful for all the good thing in my life.

The next place I want to explore; I love to travel! Anything from weekend road trips and camping to discovering new countries and cultures.

Grabbing dinner with friends, cooking in, watching a ball game or live music show, happy hour with co-workers, going to the theater or ballet, playing tennis, or maybe hosting a dinner party.

You are smart, fun, and down to earth. You love to laugh until your sides hurt, aren't afraid to be a little silly, and are looking for a partner to explore this beautiful city and share life's moments with!
