Typical TCK (third culture kid), grew up in the sticks yet visited the "mother country" plenty of times growing up.  Raised in a tightly nit family of five kids, my sister born after me has been my constant true best friend in life.  Love watching sports, especially my professional teams and those of my alma mater.  Have a post-graduate degree and look back fondly at the experience of having obtained not only an academic education but also a life education as well.  Today I work in the financial sector and really enjoy what I do (fortunately) and also own a business on the side (always trying to hustle).  Having grown up in the Midwest with sensible values, today I'm living in the region of our nation's capital, which for me is a very cosmopolitan and eclectic part of the world.  

I'm a voracious reader of the social elements of life in topics such as history, politics, religion, etc. and carry a deep social conscious.  Growing up in a smaller ho hum rural area stateside while also experiencing the flair of international travel visiting family overseas has led me to appreciate such topics on a deeper, more visceral level.  In kind, some of my tastes are sophisticated (demeanor, style, fashion) while at the same time, also unpretentious (disposition, temperament, outlook).  I'm very much into pop culture and one of my funniest (and sometimes, annoying) quirks is I like rattling off one liners from movies while getting a cheap laugh out of it...

Very serious into finding the right person and not into games.  Not into someone who is going to waste time and continue waiting around for someone "perfect" (as none of us are).  I'm a bit gregarious and extrovert that can be edgy at times, so looking for that life partner who can complement us and keep things on an even keel.  Looking for a true friend to fulfill each other and have a companionship of equals.  Having a strong moral foundation is of utmost importance to me.  I'm not puritanically strict with the practice of religion, but at the same time, I'm not permissive of clear cut vices either.  Above all, someone who accepts life for what it is and doesn't get bogged down by trying to control every little nuance and overthink how the future should be.  One day at a time attitude and understanding that together, we shall overcome all obstacles and come out stronger together.
