Discussion Just moved back! Friends?

Hey everyone 👋

Recently moved back to the Charlotte area after being away for a bit, planning to move somewhere around Cornelius for work, and figured I’d finally say what’s up. I’m Jason, 32, originally from Kannapolis and excited to plug back into the city and meet some good people.

I work as a design engineer/production manager and have done a mix of mechanical and architectural design work. Outside of work I’m into hiking, the gym, staying active, ping pong, football (Go Birds 🦅), self-growth, finances and real estate, travel/exploring new areas, and living a generally healthy, holistic lifestyle without being extreme about it.

I’m also very food motivated. Big fan of whiskey and BBQ, and honestly just about any good food. Always down to try new spots, trade recommendations, or cook something solid.

Mainly looking to meet people around my age with similar interests. Guys and girls both welcome. If a great friendship comes out of it, that’s awesome, and if something even better than that happens down the road, no complaints either.

If any of this overlaps with your interests or you have suggestions for hikes, activities, food spots, or random things I should re-discover, feel free to comment or message me. Always down to meet new people and explore the city again.
