I'm new to the area, and I decided to give this site in a shot. I figure that this would be a good outlet to meet people who share mutual interests. About me, I would consider myself as self-confident (not arrogant), fun-loving, passionate, and adventurous. I'm also an avid sports fan (anything Pittsburgh), nutrition and exercise are a major parts of my life. I'm also an avid marathoner. Running, and tennis are activities I participate in often. Professionally, I work as a nutritionist for a federal agency. I'm also a chef, so food and wine are major passions of mine. This also assists me in my vegetarian lifestyle. I enjoy cooking at home, and visiting esoteric restaurants. In my opinion there is nothing compared to an awesome dining experience. I'm also a world traveler. I travel both domestic, and abroad. I enjoy visiting other countries/places, and learning about different cultures.

Relationship-wise, I believe in treating people as I would be treated. Effective/open communication is a must. This is the nucleus of trust, and relationship building. Listening is also an important quality. This allows you to learn more about each other, and how to serve each other more effectively.
