Climbing
I like challenges that require focus, not noise.
Climbing keeps me honest. You either commit to the move or you don’t. It is one of the best ways I know to clear my head, stay sharp, and spend a day well.
Warm energy. Real chemistry. Actual plans.
I build rockets.
I’d rather make a date feel special.
If I like someone, I do not disappear into endless texting. I make a plan, show up properly, and try to make the whole thing feel easy, thoughtful, and a little exciting.
The short version
I like ambitious projects, affectionate energy, and people who say what they mean.
Most of my best decisions start with curiosity and end with a story worth retelling. Usually that means building something ambitious, finding somewhere beautiful, or turning a simple date into something that feels intentional.

- 03Comfortable outside, underground, or at altitude
- 04Confident without making everything a performance
Rocketry
I build rockets. Actual ones.
This is the part that usually gets people’s attention, and fair enough. I like projects with real stakes: design work, workshop time, testing, iteration, and the payoff of seeing a difficult thing work.
Getting outside
If there is a better story on the difficult route, I’ll take it.
I don’t need every weekend to look the same. A trail, a crag, a road trip, a cave, a place we have not tried yet; all of that beats repeating the safest option forever.
Important priorities
I take people seriously and dogs immediately.
I am loyal, attentive, and much better one to one than in a room full of people performing a personality. I make time for the people I care about, and I tend to notice the small details that make someone feel seen.
A little proof
The outdoors version of romance still counts.
I’ll make the plan
A first date should feel light, specific, and worth getting ready for.
No performance. No ten business days of messaging. Just a good plan, a bit of charm, and enough space to see if the chemistry is real.
- 01
Coffee and a walk somewhere good
Low pressure, easy conversation, and enough movement that it feels natural instead of like an interview.
- 02
A new place with one strong drink each
Better if the place has character, warm lighting, and something to laugh about by the end.
- 03
Climb, then food
Beginner-friendly if that is your speed, no ego, then we earn dinner properly.
- 04
A small adventure
A drive, a view, a hidden spot, or a plan that turns into a better one halfway through.
What I’m looking for
This works best if you like tenderness with substance.
You are
- Direct, warm, and not addicted to mixed signals
- Smart enough to be interesting and grounded enough to be easy to be around
- Open to new plans, new places, and the occasional slightly ridiculous idea
- Attracted to confidence when it is gentle, real, and backed by substance
I bring
- A clear plan instead of half-effort texting
- Attention, consistency, and follow-through
- A life I actually enjoy and want to share
- Plenty to talk about, including rockets if you ask the right question
Also relevant
I know when to be serious and when to make the moment sweeter.
I am ambitious in the parts of life that matter and playful in the parts that should stay light. Romance should feel a little fun, a little safe, and very real.
Your move
If you are interested, let’s make this easy on both of us.
Message me on Instagram. Say hi, pick a plan, or tell me what kind of date would make you genuinely look forward to leaving the house.
