I am somewhat eclectic, having many interests. I am passionate about music, I LOVE to dance - salsa and ballroom. I enjoy theater, concerts, good food. I speak French somewhat fluently, though not regularly. I am a people person - I like being around people, and enjoy stimulating conversation. I would value spending time with one special person - from a walk in a park, to more intimate activities. I greatly respect professional women, and am very encouraging of a woman to excel in her professional career. I am happy to coordinate calendars so that each of us can have a successful professional life, and also have "a life". I have only recently relocated to Austin. I am an active musician, and continue to lead two bands in Portland, mazeltovorchestra and miragejazz, as well as a jazz trio in Austin, mirage jazz ensemble.
