I'm a tall, bald, broad-shouldered, friendly guy living in Oakland, CA on the Berkeley border. I'm sane, friendly, a good listener and, I'd like to think, a fun date. I've had some pretty rich life experiences and have worked in advertising and a creative field.

I like all sorts of music, but often I'm into indie music like the Shins, the Datsuns and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. I can handle museums or sporting events but I really like the outdoors. And ideal day for me has great food and the outdoors.

You should message me if you're into having a casual drink or a cup of coffee with someone who's confident, funny and enjoys making the most of an evening. I'm a mature, level-headed, easy-going man who loves what I do and I'm seeking an independent, loving woman to enjoy life with. Chemistry is everything.

The easy answer is to grab a cup of coffee in the day or in the evening a glass of wine or beer (or a martini) at a neighborhood hang out. I'm easy going and non-pretentious, but know how to hold my own in most every social environment.

If we click, I'm always up for a local ethnic restaurant or an indie movie or a road trip to someplace cool. I really enjoy both getting out and being active in the outdoors and kicking back for relaxed weekend time at home. I'm not so much of a TV person, but curling up with a DVD with someone special makes life worthwhile.

I'm always curious to learn...so museums and art are always fun options, too.

Grabbing a late breakfast or hanging out with friends and adventuring it the best way to spend a Saturday.
