My name is Robbie. I’m a Southern California transplant from Utah. I exchanged snow, mountains, and family for the Cali weather, beaches and traffic. I have a desert tortoise named Touché. Seriously.

That is what we call an eye grabber. You were probably searching through the profiles when you saw a kinda-semi-ok-looking guy (cause we all look at the picture first). And then you saw "desert tortoise". You couldn't help yourself. You had to find out more about this mystery man. Well let me tell you a little about me...

First, I don't believe in Internet dating. Why am I here then? Well, I'm here to find people to date. Exchanging messages is fine to make sure the other person is cool and not a crazy ax murderer, but it should not replace getting to know each other face to face. So to those that live too far to date, I'm sorry, it's not going to work out.

I am in Southern California attending medical school. I grew up in Utah and attended the University of Utah for my bachelor's. I served a mission to Montreal, Canada.

I am attending medical school on the Navy scholarship. I will obligated to pay back 4 years back as a Navy physician. I am excited for this oppertunity to serve my country and take care of those that put themselves in harms way. But this will obviously require sacrifice from on my future spouse and family. Deployments and being moved to different Navy/Marine bases anywhere in the world is all part of the deal. For the next 4 years I'll for sure be here in California while I attend school. After that who know's.

I have a sarcastic/sassy/insert-own-adjective-here sense of humor. If you don't get or like sarcasm then you won't get me. If you yourself have a sarcastic personality then there is a high probability we could hit it off. But remember beneath my sassy exterior lies my sensitive soul. See...I'm complicated.

I picture myself with a smart/witty girl who I can talk to about anything. She needs to have a sense of adventure and be willing support me as an medical officer in the Navy. This is a girl who can honestly speak her mind and has an opinion. She is nice to everyone she meets and truly has a spirit of charity about her. She's quick to laughter, slow to anger. Everyday I'm with her she makes me want to be better than I am. Could this be you?
