I would describe myself as a sincere, bright, funny, artistic statistical outlier with an Olymic-size chin beard. : - ) >

My life is about realizing happiness. It's not a new idea, but the interesting part comes from how each of us defines and reaches it. Some fulfilling bright spots in my life have included: composing and performing as a classical pianist; living in China; teaching high school English; creating and publishing visual art; being into punk rock music, concerts, and clothes; owning a cat; keeping in shape through nutrition and exercise; making many great friends along the way.

The important piece missing from the mosaic is a special person with whom to share the ride of life. In general, I hope to find a woman who's intelligent, educated, physically active, appreciative of the arts, and emotionally available for a relationship. That said, I haven't mentally designed the "perfect person" because there is no such thing. Everyone is unique. Whatever combination of appealing qualities you might have (that don't come through in a profile) I won't know until we connect. Write and we can take the first small step in getting to know each other. I look forward to it...

Each person is a unique combination of qualities, and each pair of people combine can combine unforeseeable ways, so I hesitate to mentally "design" someone before meeting her. Generally, though, I hope to find someone who is attractive, physically fit, intelligent, artistic, (com)passionate, emotionally "together," and determined in pursuing an awesome, full life.
