I am seldom bored, usually perceptive, and insatiably curious.

My Self-Summary

I have the curiosity of a kid and hopefully you do too. I buy the strange fruit at the grocery store, abuse my library card, and am fascinated by big ideas like the TED talks. I'm more into science and philosophy and living wisely and gracefully than religion, spirituality, psychics, reiki, and astrology.

I'm creative and analytical, easy going and happy, competitive in a friendly way, socially liberal but don't believe government programs are always a good idea. I make friends easily and get along with pretty much everyone. I love a story well told.

I'm in New England for the holidays, but usually live in Los Angeles. Thanksgiving and Christmas are better with snow...

What I’m doing with my life

People trust me to make their money grow. I make wise decisions about what to invest their money in. It all works out well.

I’m really good at

- painting (see my photos)
- writing stories, essays, poems, facebook status messages (i think)
- listening, and i like to think i'm decent at giving advice
- empathizing with family, friends, strangers
- tennis, golf, sports in general (wish I enjoyed running but nope)
- understanding academic stuff
- negotiating
- kissing, and apparently not being humble about it.
- reading fast, which was sooo useful in law school.
- teaching and learning

I wouldn't say I'm so great at dancing but I do love it. "Let us read and let us dance - two amusements that will never do any harm to the world." - Voltaire

And I'm definitely not good at singing but once I actually have that karaoke mike I'm pretty fearless.

The first things people usually notice about me

is that I like a bit of friendly mischief. Ok that's not the first thing they notice, but it's the first thing they remember :)

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

I love literature with a plot, any book that is vivid and well written, or even badly written books that for some reason spark my creativity. I read a lot. Favorites would be To Kill a Mockingbird, anything by Shakespeare, Heinlein, Rowling or Asimov, Ender's Game, and The Hobbit. I also like nonfiction books that try to understand the world: Adam Smith, Malcolm Gladwell, and Jared Diamond. I've read a ton of books on business. I also love Calvin & Hobbes and xkcd.

I enjoy most movies, except maybe horror. My favorites: Goonies, Shawshank Redemption, Casablanca, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Raiders of the Lost Ark, E.T., Star Wars, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Fletch, Kill Bill, Bourne, The Professional, Three Kings, The Princess Bride, The Royal Tenenbaums, Let the Right One In, Contact, and anything by Pixar.

I don't watch that much tv but do really like Fringe, Heroes, Bones, True Blood, and Charlie Rose. I used to watch Seinfeld, Battlestar Galactica, and Generation Kill.

I love anything with a good beat or clever lyrics, so: Sting, Coldplay, Death Cab for Cutie, Jay-Z, Los Amigos Invisibles, Beethoven, Adele, Springsteen, Johnny Cash, Lily Allen, MGMT, Rachmaninov, and U2. I get addicted to particular songs: Walk Like an Egyptian, Killer's Human, Viva La Vida, and The Gambler.

I like all fruit. I will happily eat dessert before (and after) dinner. I usually eat healthily, but don't restrict what I eat in any way. Except I avoid mushy cooked vegetables. I've got friends who are vegetarian, pescetarian and vegan but I'd prefer not to date someone who is.

The six things I could never do without

#6: ideas and stories and storytelling
#5: a piece of paper, sketchpad, canvas, or similar outlet for creativity
#4: fruit and, it's close corollary, dessert
#3: self respect
#2: the internet. i mean i know i did for years, but how?
#1: love of family and friends (...and you?)

I spend a lot of time thinking about

how things work, how to improve at the stuff I do, how to help my friends, family and strangers, what to create next, kissing and sex, where I'd like to travel, what I'd like to read, see or experience, when I'll get to play tennis next.

On a typical Friday night I am

hanging out with my friends, possibly at a bar, house party, concert or other event, but sometimes I stay in to read, write, paint, watch a movie, chill.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

is that when I say I like fruit I really mean I'm addicted to fruit.

You should message me if

you are smart, funny, and creative,
you are dumb, boring and uninspired, but willing to play tennis, or
you are over 95% my enemy (I'm looking for my nemesis).
