Managing Partner

Background

Ted seems to be the master of positive attitude. Not only is he intelligent, highly educated, and funny; the man has class!
Despite his busy schedule of making sure that everything is in order in the 40 lawyers law firm, he never forgets to treat people with respect and empathy.

Ted loves to be outdoors, in nature, and enjoys activities such as surfing, hiking, and diving for Abalones off the Mendocino Coast; that’s with no help of any diving gear, for those who aren’t familiar in what tip top shape you have to be in to dive into those cold murky waters. Ted obviously works out.

Another large part of Ted’s life is occupied by sports. He is a huge fan of the Bay Area sport teams,and enjoys reading about sports, and watching “sport Movies”; his favorite is The Natural.(with Robert Redford)

Ted is very fond of several restaurants including: Mezzaluna & Sam’s in Half Moon Bay, and Chaya in San Francisco. With his love for seafood,Spanish and Italian cuisines,it’s obvious that he is very keen on the Mediterranean palate in general; it’s no surprise that he has his sights on a trip to Italy next. Since Ted is a natural “water boy” he lists Poi Pu, Kauai as one of his favorite places he has traveled to.

If Ted were to plan a prefect date, it would almost always include the ocean somehow. Whether it’s a trip up the Northern CA Coast, or a weekend down in his beloved Santa Barbara (he attended UCSB), you’ll be driving up and down HYW 1. Of course if you’re planning to join him, you will have an outgoing, optimistic, positive attitude, and enjoy outdoors activities. You must also be easy going and go with the flow of listening to Classical music and everything in-between that and Rap on the drive.

Double trouble?

Damien and Jeremy have been good friends for 5 years. They lead rich and rewarding lives here in SF and are offering, for the sake of a great cause, the date, no, experience of a lifetime for you and your friends.

There’s no need to think twice about this date. Damien or Jeremy would make any beautiful young woman’s mother blush with joy if they were to bring either of them home for the holidays. Here are the details:

Damien: A SoCal native, Damien is a tall, athletic gentleman who loves surfing in Costa Rica. Damien has (count them) two degrees from prestigious institutions and is a successful lawyer in Silicon Valley, where he focuses on helping young companies grow and making startup clients millionaires overnight. Damien also enjoys fine SF dining, volunteering for the Guardsmen and the Ferry Building on Saturday mornings. When he’s not climbing Mount Everest in his Nantucket red shorts, you can catch him preparing to join the PGA Tour at Olympic Club.

Jeremy: An East Coast transplant, Jeremy fancies himself an “environmentalist.” He moved here from NYC on a mission to help save the planet from the harmful impacts of climate change. Give him 6 more months and the job should be completed. Jeremy is a founding employee of a very successful renewable energy company and comes from a long line of men who’ve successfully kept a full head of hair well into their 90s. If a strong scalp and passion for the environment wasn’t enough, Jeremy graduated from a top school, is an avid skier and an active member of several youth mentoring programs. While he’s not doing all of that, you can find him working on his screenplay and Zumba instructor certification.

Together, they are quite the duo. Need a quick laugh? They are there for you. Need a shoulder to cry on? They are there for you. Need a light bulb changed? We’ll find a guy.

What can you expect on a date with Jeremy and Damien?

Originally from Atlanta Georgia and with “questionable” ties to the creator of the hit TV show “How I Met Your Mother,” self-proclaimed social butterfly Jason “Ace” Kim is known to suit up with the likes of anyone, and in any neighborhood in San Francisco. “True story, bro”.  By day, Jason serves his beloved San Francisco and the State of California by advancing medical technology in hospitals, public health departments, universities, & HIV clinics. By night you may find him at the bar-down-the-hill: Lightning Tavern, and SoMa restaurateurs are no strangers to their former neighbor. French and Indian cuisines are just some of his favorites.

Jason is confident enough to get a mani-pedi, but not afraid to get engine grease underneath his nails. An ideal relaxing evening for him is sitting by the fire pit on his balcony, watching the sunset over the Golden Gate Bridge, and enjoying fresh pasta; later it may be watching a Disney movie.(Finding Nemo is one of his guilty pleasures). But there’s more! Jason is a combat-proven veteran who has spent one year in Afghanistan and another in Iraq. He graduated from West Point and was stationed in Seattle before moving to San Francisco. Jason is witty and full of charm, but he is also very curious about the world and forever expanding his knowledge.Jason is interested in a woman who is patriotic, ambitious, intelligent for deep conversations, yet witty and versatile. If you have depth and natural sensitivity to the world around you, ‘Ace’ just might be the right hero for you.
