The vast majority of members live in the Greater Toronto Area.

I currently have a selection of people outside of Toronto in other major cities across Canada (Montreal, Vancouver, Ottawa, etc.)

It’s a much smaller pool, so we can certainly chat and see if there’s a match for you there!

Who knows what the future might look like? Keep sharing with friends!

There’s nothing else for you to do, except update your profile!

You likely won’t hear from me right away unless one of my paid clients is looking for someone in your demographic that makes sense to match with you!

You will hear from me if:

• private client spots open up

• there’s an event for your age bracket

• there’s a potential introduction for you on behalf of my paid clients

If I have spots available, we set up a 1:1 discovery call to see if it’s a good fit (personality, mindset, pool size, etc.). If it is, we go from there!

My paid client spots are currently full and there is a waiting pool.

Please note: paid clients must be 25 or older.

I work with a limited number of paid clients at a time in order to ensure that each person gets the time and attention they deserve. Right now, my spots are capped at 20 individuals.

Once my paid client spots are full, interested clients will be in a waiting pool.

A waiting pool is different from a waiting list, and does not move in chronological order.

Those in the waiting pool will be notified when a spot opens up. While waiting for an active matchmaking spot, you'll remain visible and may still be considered for introductions to clients currently in the matchmaking process.

Paid clients receive 1:1 curated matchmaking services tailored to their profile and preferences. Paid clients are matched with people from the growing member database.

Members in the free database have access to Matched x Michelle events and are matched with the paid clients when compatibility allows.

You must be an adult to join the database. We currently have community members ranging from 18-75 on the list!

Paid clients must be 25 years of age or older.

I’m fun, optimistic, honest and a straight shooter. I expect my clients to be open-minded to conversations and to trust the process! It requires patience, a yes-man attitude, and willingness to take a leap of faith, but sometimes that’s exactly what’s needed.

I’m accessible to you, but also have work-life balance and boundaries on my working hours.

This ain’t Tinder!

The singles community has become conditioned to make an immediate judgement based on a photo because of the influence of dating apps. Obviously, I know the importance of physical chemistry! However, working with a matchmaker goes deeper into the art of finding people who connect on multiple levels.

One of my few rules is to be open-minded.

A conversation or even a coffee date doesn’t mean you are signing up for a lifetime together. It’s not a waste of time to explore options, especially if there are many things between you that are aligned.

At minimum, conversations with new people you wouldn’t have otherwise met, open the door for new experiences, and better understanding what you want or don’t want in a partner.

I work with my curated matchmaking clients to do an in-depth intake call and really understand what they are looking for in a partner beyond what they’ve filled out in their form.

Then, using my database, I start with basic biographical elements which narrows down my very large list - gender, sexuality, age, and level of Jewish observance.

Then I look into the soft details - lifestyle, activity habits, work, core values, etc.

Physical features are a consideration, but core values alignment is really a top priority.

I try to find potential connections where it makes the most sense, but also encourage my clients to be open-minded.

The quick answer is, I can’t vet everyone due to the sheer size of the database. I do have short conversations with people before matching them and if something feels off, I trust my instincts.

I do not run criminal, background, or financial checks on members and everyone is responsible for their own safety.

However, I do have a zero tolerance policy on dishonesty, disrespect, or inappropriate behaviour and any such behaviour observed towards myself or anyone in the database will be resolved immediately.

To become a member and join the database is completely free!

To work with Michelle as a Curated Matchmaking Client:

• $180 +tax/month

• Initial term is a three month commitment (one payment of $540 +tax)

• Automatically moves to a month-to-month after the first three months.

• After the three months, the client can choose to pause (to explore a relationship or stop active matching) at anytime within the active billing cycle.

Check out the full pricing details on the Pricing page.

In short, yes! About 5% of the database is made up of LGBTQ+ community members.

The pool is smaller, so the conditions are a bit different and I’m always happy to chat more about this individually.

I get many messages each day from loving and caring parents, family or friends about working with them on behalf of their loved ones.

Unfortunately, given that my clients are adults and this is a highly personal line of work, I will only speak with a potential client directly and cannot work with someone else on behalf of them.

You are always welcome to pass on my website to them!
