About Me

Easygoing & accommodating GWM near Chinatown, Penn Quarter and City Center. Need a place in DC? Hit me up. :)

I work hard & sometimes play harder - while rain can sometimes get to me, I'm quite fond of chilllin' at home with a buddy on a cloudy day.

I love to be spontaneous & I'm a creative guy, I absolutely love art, alternative/indie music & catching a good show. Dining out is a regular activity of mine & finding a new place with AMAZING food is like finding hidden treasure. I enjoy walking around and exploring the city as much as I like heading out to the country and spending time in the great outdoors. I'm pretty big on traveling, I've been to a good handful of places in Europe as well as Peru.

I get sucked into documentaries & have been known to binge watch shows like Portlandia, The Walking Dead and Orange is the New Black. Love my indie art films as much as a good Hollywood flick. Relaxing on the sofa on a Saturday night is always a great idea, but so is a concert, a game of pool, skeeball or cosmic bowling at Bowl America. I work 9-5 and I'm in school one night a week, so I spend weeknights at home studying or just kicking back. Home improvement projects are a lot of fun too. :)
