I'm petite, cute, smart, told I have a great smile. Passionate about what I hold onto - family, friends, loyalty and honor run very deep. My two favorate words are grace and integrity, words I live by. I love great conversation, theater, good wine, dancing, black licorice, books with a point amidst the occasional completely meaningless but engaging novel. Think we all need to make a difference while we're here, even if its simply the smallest gesture of kindness to a perfect stranger that brings a smile to their face. Laughter is a key to life - I have a great sense of humor and delight in someone with a sharp wit, combined with intelligence and broad perspective. And before you roll your eyes and think "Valencia, that's way too far out there!" know that my work is in LA and I love going to other places in the city. Oh, and for the record, I'm a successful business professional and financially secure.


I'm attracted to a man who is equally independent, intelligent and thoughtful, proud of wherever he is in life without taking it too seriously, and fully engaged in the passion of living. He's someone who truly enjoys conversation, whether sharing silly events of the day, latest reading, discovering some amazing piece of technology on the internet, or above all, his thoughts and opinions. I'm looking for someone who is vibrant and engaged in live, and will introduce me to new interests and explorations to give a richness of wonder, learning and adventure together.

Where and when doesn't matter - we'll know in the first hour whether it's worth it to invest a second. What does matter is if there's a connection, let's not spend weeks on email, texting or phone to find out. A glass of wine or cup of coffee somewhere quiet enough to permit conversation is all I ask...
