I am an outgoing and intelligent woman who seeks the same in a man. I appreciate the simple things in life -- I have a small town Midwestern background and treasure the values that were instilled there. I love living in LA and enjoy the diversity, great weather and entertainment opportunities in the city. I have an insatiable curiosity...people, culture, business, and travel are some of my passions. I absolutely love my family and my amazing friends. Just looking for a man that shares some of my many interests, shares most of my values and would like to build something meaningful and long term.

The guy I am looking for knows what he wants in life, appreciates an independent woman, and knows how to make his woman feel special. I do not have time for games and believe that honesty, regardless of circumstance, is the best policy.

I love great music, stimulating conversation, live entertainment, travel and spending my precious spare time with someone who challenges me. I am looking for someone to enhance my already blessed life and one who will realize that life is too short to live with regret. My perfect match is someone who is tall and handsome, very affectionate and warm, and has a witty, sarcastic sense of humor. I don't take myself too seriously and hope that he won't either......life is pretty funny most of the time.

A fantastic first date could be a lot of things...I love the simplicity of chatting over coffee or a nice glass of wine, the fun and excitement of a sporting event (basketball is my favorite sport), really enjoy plays and musicals, movies are great, I like being outdoors, concerts are always a favorite, dinner is a bit cliche, but an easy choice. I am generally a fan of short and casual meetings at first to make sure chemistry is there before committing to hours of uncomfortable uncertainty.
