Meet Your Matchmaker: Reagan

As 8at8's new Director of Membership, I could not be more excited to join the world of matchmaking!  Having been in sales and recruiting for the last 4+ years, this is an exciting new adventure where I can still use some of my already-honed skills!  In addition, I have had my share of ups, downs, and all-arounds in the world of dating... so I may know a thing or two about this!


I was born in Atlanta, grew up in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL, and have been back in Atlanta for 7 years - after spending 4 wonderful years at THE University of Georgia.  I am a huge DAWGS fan, and love going back to Athens for games in the Fall!  I spend my free time at the gym, having wine with friends, eating at new, fun restaurants with my boyfriend, traveling, and going to concerts.  I have been told I can talk to a wall, and I love meeting new people and hearing their life stories!


My girlfriends and I have shared our fair share of stories regarding the dating scene in ATL.  Some have been married off, some are settling down, and some don't ever plan to!  A few things I have learned that I think are worthy of sharing are... be yourself!  Don't fake it, or you will never be able to be the REAL you with that person.  That would sure get old fast.  You are awesome as you come - embrace it.  And -- when you meet someone, don't force it!  If a person doesn't seem like a good match for you now, they may never be.  Give it a few months, then move on!  Time flies whether you are having fun or not!  And lastly -- get out of the house.  You will not meet the love of your life from your sofa!  Get out, meet new people, and maximize your odds in life and in love -- like we do at 8at8!
