Meet the Matchmakers
The humans behind the connections. We bring experience, discretion, and genuine care to every introduction we make.
Marie
Founder & Matchmaker
Lisbon & Remote
I've spent 15 years in headhunting and talent acquisition, matching people with roles, teams, and environments where they could actually thrive.
Over time, I realized something: Finding the right human connection is harder than filling a senior role. So I applied the same logic like interviews, alignment, intuition, and structure to relationships.
Match Me If You Can is not about promising love or success. It's about creating the right conditions for meaningful connections to happen.
Mara
Hub Facilitator
Lisbon
I was born on Valentine's Day, and my life has taken me across all six continents. Both personally and professionally, I've always been drawn to intentional community building, facilitating international workshops and events, and creating spaces where real connection can happen.
Match Me If You Can felt like a natural extension of how I already live and work. I'm excited to welcome you in Lisbon and help create the right conditions for meaningful connections to unfold.
Maxime
LGBTQ+ Community Manager & DJ
Lisbon
I'm a Paris-born LGBTQ+ community manager based in Lisbon, where I've lived for the past seven years. I grew up in a loving Italian family, came out young, and have always been deeply drawn to connection, community, and social life.
My path took me from fashion to running a food truck - always close to people - and eventually to music. Today, I'm also a DJ, playing regularly in Lisbon's queer nightlife. Whether through community work or music, I love bringing people together and creating spaces where everyone feels welcome.
Marie & Cliffton
Community Managers
Chiang Mai
Marie & Cliffton have been organizing events in Chiang Mai since November 2024 and have built a strong community of digital nomads as a result. With up to 100 participants per week at times, they bring the most people together there. People from all over the world.
Cliffton, who grew up in South Africa as half-Chinese, half-Thai and lived in Bangkok for 15 years, brings a wealth of experience in event and community management.
Marie, as a typical German, keeps everything organized. Her PR background helps her reach everyone looking to connect.
Kevin
Tech Builder
Remote
After quitting the rat race in 2020, I embarked on a personal journey following my heart. For three years, I was a community host at a co-living and co-working space, bringing together nomads from around the world.
Today, I'm passionate about building technology that brings people together and creates meaningful connections. I want to use AI to build purposeful apps and projects that serve humanity rather than exploit it. I met Marie during the Nomad Summit in Chiang Mai in 2026, and her project resonated deeply with me - I'm sick of normal dating apps, endless swiping, and being judged by algorithms.
For Match Me If You Can, I'm building the actual platform and app, serving as the digital match facilitator. I take care of our matching algorithm and AI, creating the intersection of thoughtful engineering and genuine human connection.
