Mini Bio
Andrea McGinty has been the founder of several other successful businesses. But her passion remains helping people with their dating lives. She has been doing that since she was 14 years old and fixing up friends in high school and college. After selling It's Just Lunch, Andrea began writing dating profiles and coaching others when friends and family began dating online. She would roll her eyes at the photos and descriptions some of them used. As with most successful things, word-of-mouth grew about her practical, winning approach. So, she decided to turn it into a business again!
In the 2020’s, Andrea became a firm believer that there is someone for everyone – it just takes the right strategy online with an incredible pool of singles. And she is a firm believer that dating should be fun, not work. In working with Andrea, you will find her enthusiasm is not just about dating but getting to know and help you!
