I am a recent college graduate with my BS in computer programming. I am doing freelance programming for Orlando area companies until I can find something more permanent. My current goals include finishing a graduate program from UCF, getting employment for a local simulation company, buying a condo/house, and settling down with a good woman.

I am a born and raised Florida boy. I have a country side which can enjoy fishing, camping, monster trucks and mud. I find sometimes that the simplest things can bring about the greatest enjoyment. That said, I own NOTHING in camo, the cowboy hat in my pictures has been retired, I don't dip, and I still have all my teeth.

I enjoy all genre of music, I don't discriminate. I do prefer going to rock/punk/metal shows over the rap/R&B shows. Simple personal preference.

I don't do drugs, but I don't condemn those who do. I have friends who are 4:20 freaks, and that is their lifestyle choice. I try to keep an open mind and allow everyone the freedom to make their own choices be they good or bad. I am not looking to be anyone's father and correct them at every pass.

I am supportive, caring, self-sacrificing and understanding. I have a lot of patience, but very little tolerance. I am very goal focused at this point in my life, and will not surround myself with those who have no drive or ambition. I was once a college student, so I understand college jobs, but working at a burger joint with no desire to be in school or better yourself just does not work with me.

I do believe in some old fashioned values, like opening the door for ladies, pulling out chairs, opening car doors, and covering the tab. However this does not mean I am looking to be a sugar daddy. I never have, and never will buy someones affections. I am a fan of random acts of caring. Texts for no reason, e-mailing to say I miss you, but I will never buy you off or throw money at you to make you love me. Couples fight, but couples who try and purchase happiness are not meant to be. This is not to mean I will not spring for flowers for no reason, but you can cross out the expectation of designer shoes just for some affection.

I feel like first dates should be something that both people enjoy. The cliche of dinner and a movie tends to not work. Something friendly and neutral like coffee or a drink to break the ice and see if we can connect.

If we are talking about dates with someone I connect with that is entirely different. I have been known to go bowling, play pool or darts, go to nightclubs, picknick in a park, go to pottery class, basically anything. I am very open to trying new activities and being new places.
