I regard myself as creative, outgoing, funny, intelligent, loyal, independent, compassionate, grounded and well rounded with many diverse interests. I generally makes things happen as opposed to waiting for them to happen. Substance over style and function over form rule - but it is quite impressive to me when someone can do both.

I have been playing guitar in bands as paid hobby/part time career since forever and generally take an iPod with me everywhere I go-tend to listen to music that is not for the masses. There are many really great bands that that don't get played on radio stations. I generally prefer alternative music.

I play ice hockey and golf to stay fit, although I am interested in getting involved in working out. Cooking a meal for a special someone or for friends/family is a passion of mine. So is road tripping (with this lousy weather in Albany - I recommend everyone to get out of this town once in a while). Life, and all it's moments are worth taking the time to celebrate.
