About Me

I'm a single father of two kids and owner of an Internet company. In my spare time, I design and shoot fireworks displays (indoor and outdoor) work on house renovations and explore the world around me. I've been divorced now for 5 years and I'm ready and excited to meet new friends and opportunities to see where it goes.

I like to keep a clean house (but not obsessive about it) and enjoy designing, renovating and budgeting my remodels. I'm not really the bar hopping, party goer, but perfectly fine in social situations. I often find myself in Southern Utah in a slot canyon or remote ridgetop at sunset (with a fire, of course) just pondering and telling completly unbelievable stories with my friends. I can also vegge in front of a hallmark movie on a lazy weekend.

Why I created this Site

I created this site to find that one special person whom I can laugh with, cry with, hike with, camp with, cook with, encourage, raise kids with, and above all, grow-up with. I also created it because I have the knowledge and why NOT market myself, i'm totally worth it! ;)

Highlights

Here are a few highlights about me personally that make me who I am.

Time Appropriate

Even though I run a company I am very careful about personal/work seperation. Family time is family time.

Romantic

Roses, gifts, surprise breakfast in bed or just cuddling in front of a movie. Although if you laugh at my poetry, we're done.

Spontaneous

I am generally a planner, but on occasion I have been known to be fully spontaneous and go on a trip on a moments notice.

Outdoor Activities

I love exploring and canyoneering in Southern Utah. I crave the road less traveled and really enjoy third-world countries as opposed to a tourist trap. ... Although, I have never been on a cruise and would like to try it sometime.

Board Games

I like board/card games that make you think and work together as a team and feel disdain for any game that makes you draw something that is not a stick figure.

Temperment

I am generally a laid-back even temperment, rarely ever get angry and learn more by listening than speaking. Well chosen, kind words and little judgement is more my style.

What I am Looking For

It is my desire to meet an active, mother (40 - 50) who knows how to exude compassion, show love and respect for the people around her. (but still a little feisty and knows who she is) Why a mother? I believe that as you raise children you gain a level of compassion, love, understanding and self-control that is different than someone who does not have those experiences... but I could be wrong. I dare you to surprise me.

Children: I really like children and will welcome any kids (or grand-kids) you may have. I can sometimes be a bit of a child myself so I'm not worried about us not getting along. I can beat anyone in a Minecraft building competition but if you have a girl, she might kick my butt in ballet. (but, I look really good in a TuTu trying to impress her)

Body Type: Active to moderately active. (This is NOT a looks thing) I like to do hiking and outdoor activities and especially in slot canyons. I'd like my companion to explore some of the same passions that I do, with me and vice-versa.

Appearance: No pre-concieved preferences. Asian, Hispanic, Blonde hair, black hair, long hair, tall or short. I rarely judge a book by its cover.

Portfolio

A picture speaks a thousand words so imagine the typing I am saving now by uploading a few images. All of these images are within the past 3-years.

Contact

I prefer to be contacted via the dating app that you saw this posting in, BUT I do read messages posted here. I do require a photo so I have at least some idea of who i'm talking with. (If I can't see your face or you have ski-goggles on you probably won't hear back)
