So... a few things about me: I love music, especially singing and playing guitar and piano. I also love to read (fiction, non-fiction, poetry, philosophy, humor, you name it!). I am a city-dweller, but I also love to be outside surrounded by nature where I can breathe and think and get away from the madness for awhile. In the last few years I have discovered a love for outdoor activities (so far the list of things I've tried includes hiking, snowshoeing, camping, cross-country skiing, and rock climbing). I'm not like an REI goddess or anything, but I am always willing to go on an adventure! :) I like baseball and love to hit up a Mariners game now and then. I am pretty laid back with a wide range of tastes--I'm equally as comfortable in a dive bar as in a wine bar. I try to surround myself with all kinds of people, and enjoy being exposed to new experiences, adventures, food, music, and ideas. Laughing is one of my favorite things to do, and my closest friends can attest to this! I can be pretty silly sometimes, but I think life is too short to take yourself so seriously!

I like my job, but I have a lot of passions outside of work and I try to make sure I'm putting energy towards those things as well as my career.

People come first for me. I've been blessed with amazing friends and family, and I try not to take this for granted!

I am looking for a man who is grounded, has integrity, values, an optimistic outlook, a sense of humor, and goals for his life. I think the greatest relationships are ones where you inspire each other to be a better version of yourself. It is my desire to continue to learn, grow and improve, and am looking for someone with a similar goal.
