As for characteristics I'd say I'm intelligent, honest, funny, outgoing, open-minded, family-oriented, and goal-oriented. I always put the thoughts and feelings of others before my own. I always try to understand both sides of the story. I very rarely get mad, and I'm pretty much the nicest guy you'll ever meet. Also, I'm definitely not one of those typical California dudes. I was raised in the Midwest and out east. That means I know how to treat a woman with respect.

I'm currently working full time as a Software Engineer. Unlike most engineers, I'm not a huge dork. I'm also working on getting a M.S. degree in Computer Science, and I'll probably go for a Ph.D. after that.

I love to try new things and have fun. I'm the type of person that will try anything once (well almost anything). I've probably been to more states than you have. I've never really been out of the country, but I'd love to see the world.

I'm Lebanese and Italian. I love baseball, and I'm a huge St. Louis Cardinals fan. I like football and most other sports, too. I listen to all types of music: country, rap, rock, hip-hop, etc.

If you want to know more, just ask. I'm a pretty friendly guy.
