ABOUT MICHELLE
Michelle is going straight to heaven. At least according to the oft-cited Jewish belief that three successful marriage matches will do just that. Instilled by her mother as a little girl, this belief has always stayed with Michelle and by her mid-20s she had quite easily and naturally introduced three couples, all of whom were married in less than three years. In doing so, Michelle not only secured her fate, but realized her innate ability to bring people together and utilize the vast social network she had acquired as a native New Yorker in the Jewish community.
Raised in a Jewish community in Brooklyn and educated at Boston University, Michelle moved to Manhattan in 2004 to attend graduate school at NYU.
For the past 20 years she has been an active member of the New York Jewish philanthropic and social scenes, serving on committees for Jewish causes and consistently attending Shabbat dinners, social events, galas, and benefits. In that time, Michelle has made lasting connections with hundreds of Jewish singles. Coupled with her own experience on the dating scene and those of her three sisters and friends, Michelle not only has the network to introduce you to your ideal match, but also the experience and the savvy to help you discover the type of person that you are truly most compatible with. Michelle takes the time to get to know both her clients and candidates, clarifies their needs, understands their priorities and brings together couples with the same enthusiasm as she would if they were her closest friends. That's where her success as a matchmaker began and that personal touch is how Michelle continues to facilitate successful relationships and marriages.
