There's nothing sexier than authenticity.
Barbara van Zyl
Who is
Barbara?
I'm South African, I live in Texas, and I spend a good part of my life on planes meeting people.
I came to matchmaking the long way round, through law and finance. It taught me to read the fine print, in contracts and in people.
Every introduction since has taught me the same thing:
Attraction fades. Compatibility compounds.
Authenticity cultivates confidence, and you can't cultivate confidence without knowing who you are. That's what I'm really good at: figuring out who you are, then finding the person who fits.
I don't do this alone. I work alongside some of the best people in the industry, with a dedicated recruitment team behind every search. Leading matchmaking companies bring me in as an online dating expert, because after years of managing dating profiles I know exactly how people present themselves, and how to see past it.
There is a match out there for everyone.
