Oh, the places you’ll go: I love to travel. A few of my favorite memories include drinking high-grade scotch with businessmen in Taipei, riding a donkey in Santorini, running around with monkeys on top of a mountain in Japan, seeing my favorite English premier soccer team, Arsenal, play in London, and visiting the old town in Dubrovnik.
Special skill: I’m a veteran of sketch comedy at ImprovBoston in a hilarious, now-defunct group called Trolls Royce.
In his spare time: I enjoy building computers, reading, yoga, beer and banter. I’m a certified scuba diver, and I’ve taught myself how to play the guitar, the bass, the banjo, the ukulele, the piano and the harmonica.
Physical trait that drives him crazy (in a good way): A girl who wears glasses.
Deal breaker: A girl who likes country music.
First-date agenda: Scope out how many science-fiction novels they’ve read.
Dating disaster: I invited a girl to an ice-cream social in fifth grade. I accidently dropped my ice cream on her shoes.
Do scientists understand more about the birds and the bees than the rest of us? Absolutely not. There’s something about great love that cannot be quantified or simplified down with scientific reasoning.
