Originally from Pennsylvania, but have lived in NY and south Florida as well. I recently moved to southern California and I spent the last year or so establishing a new social network. I recently completed work on my graduate degree and found myself too wrapped up to actually have a life. Now the degree is done... finally... so, back to the real world.

About me... I am educated, down-to-earth and consider myself to be one of the few who are not totally wrapped up in selfish and materalistic desires. I would like to think that I give more to the world then I take from it... at least, this is what I aspire to accomplish. I enjoy being around people who maintain a healthy lifestyle... working out and eating right. I am low-maintenance... most days you will find me running around in jeans and a t-shirt, but I enjoy having the opportunity to get glamorous on occassion. I am a music lover and, although I love many genres, I tend to listen mostly to urban beats... hip-hop, rap, dance hall, reggae, R&B... and Latin Freestyle (if you know what Latin Freestyle is, I'll be impressed).

I am looking for a man who is interested in developing a serious freindship and, if things work out right, a long-term relationship. I am drawn to men who are sensitive, assertive, and well-spoken. If you think that we have some things in common... please contact me.

Disclaimer (and please forgive me if this in no way applies to you): If you're married, in a serious relationship with someone, living with someone, a "player" or looking to swing... you're wasting your time with researching my profile... so, please move on. Otherwise, I would be interested in talking with you.

I prefer to keep things simple for first dates... maybe a visit to Starbucks.
