Guest Bio

Radha Patel is a Founder of the premier South Asian Matchmaking Service “Singe to Shaadi”. Never having used dating apps before, she was surprised to hear from so many of her friends and family how they are just not working. Most of the singles she spoke with said they were being open to being introduced, but either their networks weren’t that big or they were being set up with people they had nothing in common with. Radha decided her approach would be to serve as an extension of your “Friend Group” to make more meaningful introductions.
