I'm a sane, educated professional looking to meet someone special. I'm originally from NY, and have been in MN for 3 years now. I'm a molecular biologist working in the medical device industry. I've had some amazing jobs in forensics and HIV which have given me the opportunity to travel extensively, both domestically and internationally. There has always been an element within all my jobs of helping those in need. This extends to my everyday life as well. I am very empathetic, sometimes to a fault. But it would be a mistake to confuse my empathy with naïveté.

I think it's tough to meet people outside the workplace these days, and online might be a better way. Though I don't have a "type", I prefer someone who takes care of herself and is somewhat health-conscious. I am attracted to confidence, stability, and moderate sanity. Not to sound too cliché, but I am looking for someone who is honest and has integrity and I believe in leaving the negative in the past. I don't participate in unnecessary or self-induced drama. I have a lot to offer the right person, and am not the type to settle for less. Just be yourself and relax. It's a date, not a root canal :)

I'm happy to chat with anyone on line, but it's not my main purpose for being here. I'd prefer to chat a few times, talk on the phone to decide if either of us is a psycho, and then either decide we want to know more about each other or we don't. My goal on this site is to get off it! Hopefully, you feel the same way.

I think it's best to just meet for drinks or coffee. Nothing too serious, just a place to talk and get to know each other. No pressure, no expectations, just two adults relaxing and having a nice conversation. Then if we click, we could always extend it to dinner or something else, and if we don't, it's no big deal to just say to each other "nice meeting you". Worst case scenario, you have a nice conversation or make a new friend. Best case, well....   Send me a message!
