You will participate in approximately ten private 5-minute dates, each in separate Break Out Rooms within the Zoom. Your matches are based on the algorithm of our Speed Match Software.

Our lively group conversation between each date provides the perfect opportunity to get to know all of the other attendees even better.

We remove the obstacles to getting face-to-face with someone new and have much fun doing it. This is a great chance to meet other people who are also looking to connect and these events are filled with great conversations, smiles, and laughter. Lots of date matches *and* friend matches - come check it out!

Your Host: Tonyehn

After decades of curating everything from galas and grassroots concerts to art shows and climate justice campaigns, Tonyehn has landed in her favorite role yet: bringing people together in rooms pulsing with curiosity, courage, and maybe—just maybe—a little chemistry.

She runs a nonprofit dedicated to environmental health and climate change, hosts Keystone Edition Health on WVIA TV, and has spent years guiding others as a holistic life coach. But her deepest joy? Hosting multicourse dinners where strangers become chosen family over shared bites and unruly laughter, as part of her newest venture, Soul Giddy.

Now, she brings that same heart-forward magic to Little Gay Book Matchmaking as your host—a co-conspirator in the sacred art of showing up, being seen, and letting sparks fly. Tonyehn believes love comes in many forms and that everyone deserves to feel wildly wanted, just as they are.
