I grew up partly in Asia and partly in North America and like others who appreciate differences. Professionally I am serious and ambitious but personally I am much more laid back and am very considerate, respectful and at times goofy. Don't always take myself too seriously. Would love to meet others who are open minded, fun and have a positive outlook on life.

I am pretty settled professionally and recently have begun trying to balance my personal life with work...taking baby steps...so far so good.

Laughing at myself

I have a very distinctive laugh and people always notice. It's distinctive in a good way! REALLY!

In terms of books, I generally prefer fiction. Love magical realism like "One Hundred Years of Solitude," "Like Water for Chocolate." I also like "The Little Prince." Also love books with humor like anything by Sedaris.

Musicwise, I like classical, Brahms, Bach, Mahler, Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Rachmaninov, Tchaikovsky, just to name a few of my favorite composers.

Movies--Superbad, Legally Blonde, the Pillow Book, the Labyrinth, Hungover, Eat Drink Man Woman, Brokeback Mountain, Lust Caution, Amelie, Babette's Feast and many more...

Food, I love food, can't narrow it down. Very advanturous with food and love trying new things.

Practicing the cello since I have my lessons on Saturdays.

Hey! It's private.

You are looking to make a meaningful connection, emotionally open and secure, respectful and kind.
