Our Client is an extraordinary woman in her mid-70s who radiates warmth, grounded energy, and a spirit of adventure. Standing confidently at 5'6", she has honey-golden brown hair, medium length, warm green eyes, and a strong physique. She’s incredibly active—holding a black belt in Aikido and possessing the energy of someone half her age

A retired high-tech entrepreneur, she brings both wisdom and kindness into every room she enters. She splits her time between her home in Palo Alto and a condo in San Francisco, where she delights in the Bay Area’s cultural richness while remaining close to her family. With three grown children in their mid-30s and three beloved grandchildren ranging from 0-4, family is at the heart of her life.

Adventure flows through her veins—she has traveled to all seven continents and almost 100 countries, with more ambitious journeys always on the horizon. A lifelong sailor, she can often be found out on the Bay. Her Aikido black belt reflects her strength, discipline, and vitality. She works out regularly with a coach, staying deeply connected to both her body and mind. It’s important to her to find a partner who shares her passion for maintaining both mental and physical health.

A lover of languages and culture, she speaks Russian and is actively studying Japanese- in fact the GPS in her car is set in Japanese! Her deep appreciation for music is reflected in her season tickets to the San Francisco Symphony and Opera, and she has recently rediscovered her love for playing the classical flute. She describes herself as an adventurous spirit who says "yes" to opportunities more often than she says "no."

With degrees from Harvard, she combines intellect with humility, making her a deeply compelling and approachable partner. She is motivated not by status or image, but by integrity, kindness, and a strong moral compass. Her ideal match is a man of character—secure in himself, intellectually and emotionally curious, and someone who hasn’t lost his sense of wonder or willingness to embrace life's adventures.

As for what she brings to the table beyond adventure and intellect, she’s quick to learn anything new, tech-savvy (especially with software), and adapts well to different cultures, having lived and worked in both Japan and Switzerland.

The most fascinating person she’s ever met? Too many to count, but perhaps the most interesting was her maternal grandfather who was an eye witness to some of the major events of the 20th century—ask her about him when you meet.

A perfect first date with her would be a relaxed shared meal with time for great conversation, and the opportunity to begin to peel the layers of getting to know someone intriguing, someone you’d love to see again.
