In His Own Words
About Him
Part aviator, part engineer, part storyteller. I’ve raced bikes, written books, composed music, and I’m always building something — whether it’s a machine, a melody, or a meaningful life. I value depth, loyalty, laughter, and people who speak their truth. I’m driven, grounded, and still believe in real connection. Life’s short — let’s make it remarkable.
About His Ideal Match
Honesty, depth, and someone who actually shows up. I’m looking for a partner who’s independent but loyal, fun but grounded, passionate about life, and emotionally intelligent. I want real connection, not surface-level games. Someone who values growth, knows who they are, and is ready to build something meaningful — where laughter is constant, support is mutual, and trust is unshakable.
