About me

I’m a 41-year-old male professional with a hybrid work schedule. I enjoy an active, healthy lifestyle, hiking, mountain biking, running, and regular gym sessions, and spending time outdoors. I live cleanly and intentionally, and value a peaceful, respectful home environment. I don’t smoke or drink and am not a party person. I’m quiet and considerate, but also enjoy meaningful conversation and connecting with positive, like-minded people.
