Match.com, Tindr, Grindr, OkCupid, Coffee Meets Bagel, Plenty of Fish...the list of online dating options goes on and on! If you're new to online dating, or dating in general, please join the Center for Student Engagement in welcoming Michelle Jacoby, founder and CEO of DC Matchmaking, as we talk about how The Struggle is Real: online dating as a grad student in DC.

Michelle, a GWU alum, delivers the education you can't get in the classroom, including everything from choosing a site (or sites) that work for you, the keys to building an online profile, navigating the online dating process and, ultimately, taking the relationship off the internet.

This event is open to all ages, backgrounds, and identities.
