Hi. I'm Sean.
Hi. I'm Sean.
And if you've spent any amount of time on my website, you've probably figured out two things:
First, I travel a lot. Like, a lot.
Second, I really like people. Especially men.
I've spent most of my life collecting stories.
Some people collect watches. Cars. Stamps.
I collect conversations.
The best ones usually happen late at night.
After dinner.
After the second cocktail.
After both of us stop trying to impress each other.
That's when people become interesting.
Because you see, our whole lives are just stories. And the trajectory of your life can dramatically change with the right words, the right communication, or the right moment with the right person at the right time.
And I want to be part of your story.
And I want you to be part of mine.
The Basics
The Basics
I'm 5'11". Born in Amish country. Raised in the Pacific Northwest.
I've been deeply influenced by extended time spent in mountainous Vermont, coastal Mississippi, tropical Costa Rica, and Pacific Northwest wine country.
I was a corporate titan at Mastercard and Amazon in Seattle. I built a tech sales team for a venture-backed startup in New York City. I am now working freelance based out of Salt Lake City.
I speak fluent English and Spanish well enough to be dangerous at a Mexican restaurant.
I travel constantly.
Probably more than I should. But definitely less than I'd like.
What I Love
What I Love
Airport terminals before sunrise.
Hotel bars with terrible Yelp reviews and excellent stories.
Drag queens.
Road trips.
Political debates that stay civil.
Architecture. Reality television.
People who are passionate about the esoteric. Good wine.
Bad decisions that become great stories.
The moment someone realizes they're safe enough to be themselves.
Chocolate.
My Saab.
My dachshund Hansel and shih tzu Darlene.
BLOOM in Cincinnati, Ohio. May 2026.
I love:
Travel - El Poblado in Medellin; the bayous of coastal Mississippi; Bohemian Paradise in Czechia; I love to travel.
History, politics, and economics - Who was the 17th President of the United States?
Architecture and design - For some reason I can tell you the differences between a Queen Anne and a Georgian.
Great conversation - I can get real existential real quick, or keep it light.
Queer Nightlife - Partying in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan or house partying in Salt Lake City, Utah, I want all the gay nightlife experiences.
Psychology and psychiatry - I am an armchair psychiatrist and am happy to psychoanalyze you (with permission).
Current events - I'm so annoyed for how long I'm going to have to say 'because of the Iran War.'
Long dinners that turn into longer nights - By the spirits of Hecate, let me bewitch you.
I can be equally happy discussing geopolitics over affogato at 1:00 AM or laughing over a broken wine glass as an evening unfolds naturally.
What I'm Actually Good At
What I'm Actually Good At
Making people feel comfortable.
Asking good questions.
Remembering details.
Listening.
Flirting.
Finding hidden restaurants.
Getting us into trouble that's interesting but rarely serious.
Turning an ordinary evening into a memorable one.
Why I Started The Boyfriend Experience
Why I Started The Boyfriend Experience
Because loneliness is far more common than people admit.
Especially among gay men.
We're connected to everyone and somehow disconnected from each other.
We spend hours scrolling through profiles and still struggle to find genuine connection.
We convince ourselves we don't need anyone.
Then we hear from an old crush and suddenly remember that maybe we do.
The Boyfriend Experience was born from a simple idea:
What if someone could look forward to seeing you?
What if someone was genuinely excited to spend time with you?
What if chemistry doesn't have to be left entirely to chance?

The Kind Of Men I Meet
The Kind Of Men I Meet
They're often successful.
Funny.
Accomplished.
Busy.
Kind.
And surprisingly lonely.
Some are recently divorced. Some are celebrating something. Some are rebuilding after a difficult chapter. Some simply miss having someone to share experiences with.
The details change.
The desire underneath rarely does.
Most people want affection.
Most people want to feel chosen.
Let's meet. Let's rendezvous. Let's change our lives.
What Spending Time With Me Feels Like
What Spending Time With Me Feels Like
Like spending time with someone you've known longer than you actually have.
Like laughing harder than you expected.
Like accidentally staying for one more drink.
Then one more.
Like realizing you've been talking for four hours.
Like forgetting to check your phone.
Like feeling appreciated.
Like being fully present.
One Confession
One Confession
I secretly love first messages.
The nervous ones.
The awkward ones.
The overly detailed ones.
The men who spend twenty minutes writing and rewriting a text before finally pressing send.
You don't need the perfect introduction.
You don't need the perfect plan.
Just say hello.
Tell me where you are. Tell me what you're looking for.
Tell me what kind of adventure sounds appealing.
We'll figure out the rest together.
I look forward to hearing from you.
xoxo - Sean
