I am attractive (physically, mentally, and emotionally) and confident, but down-to-earth; intellectual but accessible; energetic but reflective; adventurous but reasonable; and professionally successful but dedicated to constant growth and learning. I am an educator, author, athlete, adventurer, conversationalist, optimist, son, brother, scholar, cook, humorist sarcasticismo, and very-amateur-backrub-artist. And I need adventure, damn it. And challenging conversation. And intellectual engagement.
