I\'m an eternal optimist who lives life to its fullest. I have a background in linguistics, and spend my time working with children with language impairments. I love the diversity and culture of big cities, but my heart never strays far from home, where I grew up with love, laughter, and compassion. I face every new challenge with confidence and an open mind. I\'ll read anything I can get my hands on, and love good conversation, both intellectual and casual. I guess I\'m looking for someone who shares the same passion and positive outlook on life, who values education and family, and doesn\'t take himself too seriously. After much encouragement from friends and family, I thought I\'d give this a try!
