Cadet2386, 38

The Cadet Some people have been known to describe me as reserved or quiet, I prefer "unassuming," it just sounds better to me. Mostly, however, that is just until I get to know someone. Then I become more outgoing. I suppose at the end of the day, the best way I can describe myself is just, "average all American nice guy." I guess I have a strong need to belong, and I am very loyal. I'm a pretty good listener, as I often do really prefer to listen rather than talk.

I got my degree in Forensic Science, and would love to get into the field some day, as I have always wanted to help other people, but for now I have moved back home to Cincinnati and I am working doing *nalytical lab work.

One of my big hobbies is replica costume and prop construction, so, yes, I am a costumer. However, what makes me stand apart from many of my fellow costuming geeks is that I don’t just do it for conventions. I volunteer my time as a costumed character in support of a variety of community activities and Children's charities, like the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, and make appearances at their events as characters like Spider-man. Costuming is actually a very rewarding and fun hobby, and I have also gained lots of unique and interesting experiences doing this, from making the day of a sick child, seeing their faces light up, to getting to go back stage at Disney World, and hanging out at bars with Movie Stars like Ray Park and Daniel Logan.

I got into running and working out to stay in Shape for Spider-man, so I'm sort of interesting in someone who would be up for running with me.
