I enjoy being outside doing just about anything, cycling, camping, mountain biking, going to the beach, fishing, and anything that involves cars, Long drives on a nice day down a back road with music up and the windows down.

My current long term goal is to get my Master's in Aerospace Engineering and a job working a smaller Aerospace Engineering firm.

Hmmm, about me… Well, I’d say I’m a pretty simple guy. It doesn’t really matter what I’m doing as much as who I’m doing it with. I like spending time with my friends and family and will do anything at the drop of a dime to help them out. I’m a hard worker and when I get involved with a project I commit myself to it. Recently I bought a house and I’m discovering the “joys” of homeownership ;-). Doing things around the house or working out in the yard actually isn’t that bad. I like doing things with my hands and being outside, so I can’t really complain that much. Besides yard work, other things I like to do outside are riding my bike, washing and working on my car, going up to Blueridge to do some camping/hiking, going to the beach, and sitting around the back yard having a cook out with my friends.

I’m a fun and caring person and a good listener. I feel like communication is very important in a relationship and try to be open and honest. I say what’s on my mind. I’m very playful and like to joke around a lot. Not afraid to laugh at myself either, so if you like to joke on people, I can handle it. But be prepared to get it back a little too. I’m only serious when I need to be… Most of the time ;-) but I think that sometimes even a little humor in certain serious situations can help make things go better.

A first date hmmmmm... Probably would start with something eat, probably at a mexican type place. Those seem to be pretty laid back and it's cool to chat over some chips and salsa. After dinner probably do something fun like go drive the indoor go karts in portsmouth or maybe head up to Busch Gardens, or possibly to some outdoor event or festival. I like doing things outside as much as possible so I'd try to do something that involves the outdoors. Ideally it would be to go for a bike ride but not everybody has a bike.
