About me:
How should I write this to sound like I have half a brain. That's as good as it gets by the way. I moved to Seattle in May of 2007. I work as a consultant in Redmond for a great company. Work is very important to me but so are friends and family. With just moving to the area I have few friends and family is far away now.
The more I learn about Seattle the more I love it. I am a huge Mariners fan, (ouch)and attend as many games as possible. Being a Mariners fan you get used to dissapointment. But I love them. I am also a huge Sci-fi fan, Prision Break and a few others like it. "24" is an all time favorite.
For me few other places relax me like the water. Ocean or lake, it doesn't matter, I like water. I am a hiker, Geo-cacher and backpacker by hobby. I love to cook and I am pretty good at it. Been featured in a few magazines and national newspapers because of it. I am just now discovering the ladies like a guy that can cook a gourmet meal and do the dishes after. Who knew?
My other interests are the Trigeminal Neuralgia support groups. For those that have (or had) the condition like me you understand why they call it the "Suicide Disease". I have been lucky in the fact that I have a great surgical team here in Seattle (Virginia Mason) that after two surgeries have at this point made me pain free. Now I am still a pain to my friends and family but I myself am pain free after three years.
Who I'd like to meet:
Someone asked me if I could have dinner with anyone in history who would it be? I decided Ben Franklin. He was probably the geek and nerd of his time like me.
