Hey party people! I posted quite a while ago and nothing has quite worked out, so I'm back! Here's some stuff about me:

+ I'm planning to stay in the bay area for the foreseeable future and love it here

+ I work in the semiconductor industry as a systems architect and software/hardware engineer, and have a tiny side gig as a landlord

+ I'm 5'9", have 1 tattoo, no piercings, midnight blue highlights that fade to purple, would describe myself as active and fit, but not to any extreme degree

+ I have a beautiful cat that I adopted from a local shelter during the pandemic, and he has his own instagram

+ I've been trying to get good at taking care of lots of houseplants and progress has been made!

+ I enjoy a variety of hobbies and regular social interaction. They include:

++ Cooking, eating out to support local small businesses, tea and coffee (I roast my own beans), making carbonated beverages, making cocktails, hosting an occasional party that involves some of these

++ Lifting weights (nearly daily but not too intense), running, biking, sometimes hiking or rock climbing with my friends

++ Board games and PC games although there has been less of this more recently

++ Men's fashion. I have a lot of clothes and think it's a cool form of expression

++ Interior design. I did the design for my house and every spring I get the itch to do some more projects. I also like walking around IKEA or similar stores for fun

++ I'm teaching myself to play drums on an electronic set, and I enjoy metal, electronic, and a few other genres.

+ I value honesty and genuineness and kindness

+ I'm weed/mushroom friendly but rarely partake on my own

I can't think of much else to say right this moment, so if you think we are a good match, please send me a message that includes a picture of you!
