MATCHMAKER & DATE COACH

JAYDI S.

After setting up countless friends and colleagues, Jaydi founded her own matchmaking and dating coaching business in 2014 where she helped introduce many couples who went on to become engaged or married. She is also a working TV writer with credits on shows like Family Guy and Salem. Given her background and understanding of the unique needs in that field, she specializes in working with clients in the entertainment industry. She met her own husband, Dave, who works on the unscripted side of the business, when he was referred to her as a potential Client. For the first time ever, Jaydi "got high on her own supply" and asked him out on a date. The rest, as they say, is movie magic. She applies that same gut instinct when introducing others. Her absolute favorite clients to work with are ones like her husband, who are essentially the whole package but perhaps just need a little nudge in the right direction. She and Dave reside in Sherman Oaks with their adorable and neurotic dog Rambo.

MATCHMAKER & DATE COACH

CARINA E.

Introducing her first couple whilst still in college, Carina ensured that match’s success by wing-womaning the couple on their first date. 18 years and 4 kids later, they are still going strong! A Canadian expat with a B.F.A in film, Carina spent over a decade working internationally in I.P. Development for clients like Shell Oil and Mandalay Entertainment. A natural connector with a strong instinct for who is ‘meant to be,’ she developed a diverse network of friends and colleagues with whom she played Cupid. After the fifth or sixth marriage between people she’d introduced, the floodgates opened. Turning her natural gift into a professional calling in 2015, Carina took over client relations for a boutique, luxury matchmaking firm in Santa Monica, falling head-over-heels with the business side of love. She’s since married her experience as a matchmaker with a lifelong devotion to self-development, studying love and relationships everywhere she can, from The Gottman Institute to one of the world’s top pick-up artists. Passionate about sharing her unique, practical expertise as both a coach and matchmaker, Carina is committed to helping each client find the happiness, peace, and loving connection that she found with her own husband. Road-trips, hot springs, the Boundary Waters, and sushi are a few of her other favorite things!
