Experience... As a Matchmaker
As a genuine hopeless romantic, I believe everyone is capable of finding true love. I've always had an unexplainable knack for reading people and their personalities, and for being able to offer advice after listening to someone for even just a few minutes. This, coupled with a degree in Psychology and training as a coach, made becoming a matchmaker a natural choice.
My approach is unique, taking the holistic - or "whole person" approach - to matching and to giving advice to those still searching for love.

Experience... As a REAL Woman (that means I'm a mom)
Life as a mom is full of glamour... WHAT?!
I am my own success story. I was raised by amazing parents in Montana with strong morals and a clear sense of right and wrong. I was married for five and a half years and had two beautiful daughters in that marriage. Although he was a great guy, we were fundamentally different, and I wasn't at the point yet where I knew how to make things better. I believe life is to be lived to the fullest, and we both knew it was time to go our separate ways.
As a Fitness Competitor and Model, it was hard to find quality men. I have been a fitness model since 1999, which has always made "normal" dating complicated, and online dating with children was a NIGHTMARE. Crazy men, lazy men, stalkers, false photographs, men with ill intentions, not enough time to go on quality dates... I wasted so much time sorting through all of the frogs. I knew in the back of my mind that this process was less than ideal, and that there had to be a better way.
I did finally find my prince. We are blissfully happy now, always enjoying life to the fullest and rarely spending time apart. That's not to say we don't have our issues, but dealing with them provides me constant "learning" opportunities that I can pass on to others! My children are happy and feel safe, which is priceless to me.
I don't want others to have to wade through all of the scary and confusing dating sludge in order to find that one gem. My goal is to help men and women find their soul-mates, their "missing piece", but more importantly to help them find happiness in themselves first - or at least along the way.

Experience... Knowing That Two Broken Hearts Can't Make a Whole...
We all know from past (or current) relationships that a relationship in which one or both people rely on the other person to "complete" them or help them to function correctly isn't healthy.
In any relationship or any life circumstance, if you are a whole, happy, and stable person on your own, you will prevail. When someone has the self-esteem it takes to know that they cannot be shaken by another person, and they can be happy with who they are without the attachment to needing another person's constant approval, they can come into a relationship with the greatest chance of success.
I emphasize this through my holistic approach, taking the whole person - Personality Type and Traits included - and helping them increase self-esteem and awareness so that they can bring their best self to any relationship or situation.
On an airplane, listening to the flight attendant's safety presentation, you will always hear them say that if the cabin loses pressure and the air bags drop, secure your own air bag first, before helping those around you. This is true in life also. You need to take care of yourself and find internal happiness before you can expect to be able to provide this to others.
In current relationships, if you are teetering on the edge of leaving or staying, there are some very fundamental and basic things you can do to discover whether or not you can make it work. If you really want to save your relationship - both of you - it CAN work.
Happiness is an inside job.
