Charming, casual & intelligent guy navigating bachelorhood after many years in a committed LTR; Development Director for a social service agency; occasional songwriter & devout music lover; dabbling essay writer & semi-frequent essay reader; art appreciator & occasional museum visitor; film watcher & off-Broadway theater goer; Manhattan wanderer; primary snuggle buddy of my cat, Cling; hopeful romantic & cautious optimist.

In a nutshell, I'm a romantic dork who likes cuddling & conversation. I have a geek brain & a bearish body, but I don't fall in with any specific gay group. If I'm any animal, it's a platypus: comprised of elements that should not work together but do.
