I'm tall and athletic, love to meet people, and socialize. I'm in the financial services industry, but I also love travel, eat out, watch & play sports. I'm close to my family and my pet spaniel - I love dogs. I'm easy-going and try to get along with people from all walks of life. My goal is to meet a genuine, intelligent girl so we can just date, enjoy each other's company, and if it works out, develop a lasting relationship.

I think the best first date should be casual, like meeting for a Starbucks coffee. If we both hit it off, then we take it to the next level - dinner at a nice restaurant, where we can talk and really get to know each other. Meeting for coffee the very first time makes it easy to see if we'd like to get together again, and if not, there's no harm done.
