Recently graduated UCLA with B.S. Biochemistry and just started a fully employed dual degree MBA/MS Biotech at CSUCI. I work at a biotech company selling NanoPhotometers and part time at a microbrewery.

I am a nerd at heart. Played videogames since I was a wee one and worked at a computer store for 5yrs. I built my computer and sometimes get aroused by technical specifications. I read reddit and am a former digg reader... I waste much time on useless internet culture that I find enormously entertaining.

I like my alcohol...especially beer...especially good beer. I used to like to do drugs, but I think I have outgrown them. I brew my own beer and am involved with a homebrew club. I always have a keg of homebrew on tap and I must say it tastes damn good. Recently I got a part time gig selling Angel City Beer in Ventura County to local bars.

I am a hippie at heart but I'm willing to become a "suit" to earn creature comforts that money can buy...things are nice... they sometimes make me happy...more accurately I'm trying to establish some feeling of security. Trying to find that balance between youthful idealism and living a comfortable life.

I love camping and hiking. My camping can either be minimalist by taking a backpack to a mountain peak and watching the sun rise in the morning or it can be a huge ordeal with campfires, smores, burgers, and beer. They both have their charms, and either one of them make me very happy.

I am a romantic at heart. I'm looking to feel mutually connected and completed by someone. It takes awhile to build, and it doesn't help that I'm emotionally guarded. But it doesn't have to be taken so seriously at first... go out, have a good time! Let's do something embarrassing, frightening, share something and slowly show some vulnerability. Things will come and develop if it is meant to. I don't bite... hard, and if I do bite then I hope you laugh because I'll be laughing and coming in for the next one.

anything involving a drink or two... it really brakes the ice in first meeting awkwardness. Maybe food too, but 1st meetings should be relatively short and sweet to gage chemistry... so save the multiple activity and whole day adventures to the 2nd to 100th date.
