The S.B. Questionnaire: Lisa Amador
Talking Relationships and Honesty with the Owner of Santa Barbara Matchmaking
“I teach people to communicate and to listen,” says Lisa Amador, owner of Santa Barbara Matchmaking. “If more people did that, they’d be meeting people.”
Lisa walks into a room with a wide smile and obvious self-assuredness. Trained by the The Matchmaking Institute in New York City, she now helps singles navigate the Santa Barbara scene, which is surprisingly limited in venues for people to meet up in a meaningful way.
Lisa subjects her clients to an initial interview to learn about expectations and who they are as individuals. She finds out what kind of things make your heart happy, what things that are missing in your life, what you are looking for in a partner, and what are the deal breakers, such as gaps in age or education.
