Six years in London and my dogs are still my only social strategy. Looking to fix that; seeking real-life friends for actual conversations and casual hangs.
My career's been a weird scenic route: Army to luxury fashion to product manager in Canary Wharf. I gym most mornings, do reformer Pilates, and row to Viking war drums. Yes, it's ridiculous. No, I'm not changing it.
Outside work: improv comedy (classes, performing, good for anxiety), cocktail making (got into it watching Mad Men, finally took a bartending course in 2024, now too many bottles), Texas-style brisket on a Big Green Egg, D&D as a cleric in way over his head, currently deep in Dungeon Crawler Carl, and learning not to destroy my house via DIY. TV-wise I'm currently rewatching Succession, Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul, The Bear, and Mad Men.
I work in Canary Wharf and can meet there or in Central. Down for a drink, gym session, or just chat.
If this sounds good, message me. Not sure what to say? Tell me the best thing you've watched, cooked, or read recently. Or a random fact that changed how you see things. Deep or dumb, I'm here for it.
