Becoming a Matchmaker: The Unexpected Path That Changed My Life

Becoming a Matchmaker: The Unexpected Path That Changed My Life

I never set out to become a matchmaker, or a dating expert for that matter. After my divorce, I made a bold decision: I would go on one hundred first dates in a single year. What started as an experiment in self-discovery quickly became a deep education in human behavior, attraction, and the modern dating landscape. I realized that so many people were approaching dating without direction, awareness, or strategy. I couldn’t help but think, someone needs to help these people understand the dating game. Over time, that “someone” became me. Along the way, I was blessed to experience two extraordinary loves: one that ended too soon, and one that continues to this day with my husband, Ken. Those experiences shaped not only who I am, but why I’m so passionate about helping others find the kind of love that lasts.

For over 25 years, I’ve dedicated my life to helping people rewrite their love stories. As a dating expert, coach, and educator, my mission is to help singles remove the hidden blocks that keep them from finding and keeping meaningful relationships. I’ve learned that so much of finding love isn’t about luck. It’s about understanding your beliefs, breaking patterns that no longer serve you, and approaching dating with both confidence and clarity. I share my work through seminars, podcasts, online classes, and personalized matchmaking, giving singles the tools they need to navigate the often confusing, and sometimes exhausting, world of dating.

My coaching focuses on life, dating, and relationships, helping my clients uncover and transform the beliefs that have been holding them back. I’m also the author of Cupid’s Playbook: How to Play the Dating Game to Win!, a guide I created to help people date smarter, not harder and Soulmate Quest: A Matchmaker’s Guide to Find True Love. But my advice isn’t just from years of coaching—it comes from my own personal journey. In 2010, my life changed forever when my husband died suddenly in an accident. I was widowed, heartbroken, and completely unprepared to re-enter the world of dating. It had changed dramatically, and I had to figure out how to navigate it while rediscovering who I was as a single woman. That experience—raw, humbling, and full of lessons—has shaped the way I work with singles today.

Now, I’m starting a grassroots movement to help people find love outside of dating apps. While technology has its benefits, I believe real human connection is built in shared moments, community involvement, and intentional introductions, not just swipes and algorithms. My mission is to bring people back to meeting face-to-face, where chemistry and connection can happen naturally. If you’re ready to stop feeling stuck, ditch the endless scroll, and embrace a more authentic way to find love, I’m here to guide you. I know love is possible at any stage of life—because I’ve lived it, I’ve taught it, and I’ve helped others create it. I have found love again with my husband Ken. He is my perfect match. Your love story is still waiting to be written, and I’d be honored to help you write it.
