I love to laugh, I smile a lot, and always try to see the positive in everything! Having that outlook seems to make everything far more enjoyable :) I definitely make time to have fun and unwind...I'm very easy going and can equally look forward to a busy night in the city or a quiet night in watching a movie...I try to enjoy each day, not just look forward to the weekend...

While I'm calm and relaxed, I'm also a hard working guy...I enjoy pushing myself professionally and intellectually...I go after what I want and always look for new challenges and ways to make life more interesting...I love learning about life and listening to others experiences...I realize there's lots I don't know and feel that being open to new information and experiences is key...I've been to Egypt, Cuba, Acapulco, Dominican, and Cancun...There are still many places I'd love to explore, as well things I'd like to learn (for example, salsa dancing!)

I have many interests...I like working out, playing sports (tennis, basketball, baseball) and watching sports as well...I maintain and enjoy a healthy lifestyle..The kid in me loves video games :) I love to read, but find it difficult to make time to complete books...However, I read the newspaper, as I consider it important to be informed regarding the world around me...I love food and experimenting with international cuisine!

Family is very important for me...I'm fortunate to be close with my family...They've treated me exceptionally well and instilled strong values in me...

Friends are also very important...I have a couple of very close friends who I can trust with anything – I would do anything for them, as they have done so much for me...I also really enjoy networking and meeting new people...

I really believe that things happen for a reason and that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger...I’ve learned from my hardships and am confident that I can handle whatever I chose to pursue as well as any problems that come my way...

Well there's a bit about me, so I'll stop rambling on...If you have any questions at all, feel free to ask :)

If you're going to message me please include pictures...I've included mine, so I think its only fair you do so as well!

I'm not interested in wasting time on msn...I would rather talk in person and see if there is any chemistry

The conservative side of me would say a lounge/bar/coffee house...Somewhere that we can talk and get to know each other...And basically just see how things go from there...

But I'm also open to other suggestions :)
