It’s been almost 3 years since I moved to DFW from Washington, DC. I grew up mostly in North Carolina, but my roots and family are in Virginia. Traveling and learning are two of my passions. I lived in China for over three years and speak Mandarin Chinese. I do my best to stay in shape and eat right (easier said than done with all the travel I do for my job), but I’m not really the gym type. I prefer to chase some sort of ball for exercise (and fun). Tennis is my favorite sport, but I have recently gotten into badminton. Although I appreciate nice things, I’m not really hung up on name brands and designer labels.

The girl I’m looking for is intelligent and goal-oriented, but also sweet and good-natured. She’s also independent, stable, and has manners. She will also take an active interest in and want to learn more about the world around her. Courtesy is a huge turn-on for me. I believe how someone treats waiters and waitresses is a good predictor of character. Your career and income don’t matter too much -- the only caveats being you are trying to better yourself and you are responsible enough to live within your means.
