I will start by confessing that I am a lucky person. I have been fortunate to make good on a rigorous education and have been afforded lots of opportunities to capitalize on my curiosity about the world. I’ve lived in lots of places, worked on some right-brain - and some left-brain - endeavors, and I think I stack up favorably in matters related to humanity.

If I am being honest, people are more attracted to me after they get to know me than they are seeing me across a room. I am 6’5" and a teddy bear type, and I have some unfortunate blotchiness on my legs (though I assure you it poses no threat), but I love life and try always to project positive energy. That comes across and people usually warm to me quickly.

My geekiness shines through when I talk about old and rare books, wine, watches, antiques, art, and people often seek my advice on business and financial matters. I am an old soul and useless when it comes to reality shows, cool hipster things, tech gadgets and conspicuous consumerism (though I know some branded goods quite well and I have a facile mind when it comes to how things work).

I care about a connection most of all and I tend to move slowly and deliberately. I am confident in who I am and my day job necessitates that I am in control of my surroundings. 

I am a fan of the classics, and from an attire perspective I prefer understatement; I think a woman looks her best in a LBD or a white button down and jeans... however, I am a sucker for stockings and love old-school seams running down the back of a pair of black thigh-highs :).  

BCD, I am orally inclined both ways and more of a slow player (I am not a wham-bam acrobatic type). I like slow and smoldering. 

This is not to be scary, but if you enjoy exploring power dynamics and have submissive tendencies, please let me know. I’ve recently been exploring a bit in the world of D/s where I am the D. I am not trying to overstate my prowess / status at work, but I am a decision maker during daylight hours and sometimes, those decisions are not fun or easy. While immersed in this realm, for many years it felt like a nice escape to be passive and have people do for me / direct me (and oftentimes, I still like that). 

However, more recently I’ve been visiting someone quite regularly who has encouraged me to take on the dominant role (we have developed a lot of trust over our visits), and it has suited me. I am not so bold as to foist that expectation onto anyone before we’ve met, but if it resonates with you, please feel free to start a dialogue with me on that topic; if not, that is also great.

I prefer email for correspondence.

Thank you for reading my profile!
