In Her Own Words
About her
I'm an experimental physicist. I retired early from university teaching and worked on some independent real estate projects but quickly realized my passion was science, so I looked around for inspiration. I decided to create a website to explain the physics of everyday life in layman's language(started a non-profit to fund it if you're looking for a tax deduction). In the process, I realized there was a lot I didn't know so I re-connected with the faculty at the graduate school I attended and am finding joy and new ideas in talks and classes that are filling in the gaps in my knowledge and that I hope to share on my website.
After a difficult breakup two years ago, I made a lot of positive changes in my life.* Now I'm ready to jump back in and take a chance on life and love again. I'm looking for someone who's open to possibility and brave enough to take a chance on me.
*like embracing a healthy lifestyle, daily workouts that have expanded beyond my go-to swimming to include pickleball, spinning, weight training and yoga. I also started playing duplicate bridge pretty seriously and have been traveling to tournaments.
About her ideal match
My ideal match is resilient, both intelligent and intellectually curious, flexible, and open to starting over using the tools of a lifetime of experience to start fresh. The only non-negotiable requirement is a sense of humor, which is naturally accompanied by a sense of irony and acceptance. No couch potatoes(that's a deal breaker), but quiet Sundays reading by the fireplace OK. I am addicted to hugging and am searching for the kind of connection that makes life meaningful and difficulties bearable. My dream date is listening to live music outdoors with your arm around me and my head on your shoulder.
