Founder & Lead Matchmaker Talya Shoup has a background in recruiting and executive search, giving her a fundamentally unique perspective on matchmaking. Just as an executive recruiter searches beyond the obvious candidates to find the person who truly fits a role, she searches beyond the obvious dating pool to find people who are a strong fit for each of her clients.
A dating app waits for people to swipe, click, or search endlessly, and many matchmakers simply pull profiles from a database without thoroughly vetting people for compatibility. While we do use our extensive network of singles and occasionally collaborate with other matchmakers, most of our matches are made by boots-on-the-ground connections that we find and vet for our clients.
With Lowcountry Matchmaking, the goal isn't simply more introductions. It's the right introduction, with support and guidance along the way, so that your journey to love is one that results in a happy-ever-after.
