Create the perfect profile by making the most of each section. 

 

Below, you’ll find an example of the profile and what information can be added in each section. Remember, you don’t have to do everything at once, but the more you do, the more potential for matches you have. 

 

Note: The recommended sections will depend on what pursuits you have indicated 

 

👋 About: Add the following information about yourself: 

  • Profile picture 

  • Contact information 

  • Pronouns
