I am a former class clown who enjoys good conversation and company. I like sports, movies, reading, current events and am pretty open to anything really. After several years in the business world, I am presently finishing up a doctoral program and want to be a full-time professor at some point in the near future. I am unique in that I am very independent, but I believe that describes how I think more than anything else. I love differences of opinion.

My favorite genre of music is Brit pop, which started with the Beatles, but has moved to present day with the likes of Coldplay and Radiohead.

I mostly like to get to know a person on the first date and will do whatever that entails. Dinner, coffee, movie, whatever. I don't like to feel you have to make some sort of big production at first (and hopefully not often, really).
