I grew up with a piano teacher for a mom and a dad that worked in technology. I come from a very supportive and loving family that I would consider my greatest blessing in life. I have always been around music,and after college I decided to make a career of it. As I get older my goals and aspirations are more personal and family oriented than career focused. Of course I want to be successful, but I don't want to be the old guy in the club driving a Porsche with an ear ring and an ed hardy t-shirt. I compose and produce a lot of music for television, but I have done some R&B and rap records in the past. I am also getting more involved with social media and digital marketing and hope to pursue additional career goals there. I'm not terribly concerned with what makes me unique, but I feel like everyone is connected somehow and that if you are really open and honest, you can relate to anyone's personal experience.

My music tastes are kind of all over the place. As far as newer stuff goes, I like the pheonix album. Passion pit is pretty good. Love MGMT, Justice, Grizzly Bear...which is kinda funny because I sort of grew up on rap music. I still listen to Jay-z and Kanye West though.

As with everyone, I am looking for someone I can laugh with. A sense of humor is pretty critical with me as I'm always joking around. Beyond that, I like a woman with confidence but who can still have a soft side. That's about it!

I think its best to keep things simple on the first date just to see if there's chemistry there. It's something you can't really tell from a picture or an email conversation. Common interests and ideals are nice, but I don't think its what really draws people together. I'd probably suggest we just go for a drink somewhere laid back. If after we meet, and we both feel something it will be fairly obvious. If not then hey, at least we got to know each other and maybe we can be friends!
