WADE KYLE
Wade Kyle, Founder & CEO of The Magical Matchmaker, was raised in a small town near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Upon discovering he was gay in his teens, he understood the difficulty of growing up queer in small-town America.
Wade left his small town when he turned 18 and moved to the City of Pittsburgh. He instantly found community among other queer outcasts including drag queens, punks, poets, performance artists, and mystics.
He began his journey in matchmaking in 2011 while attending Point Park University, an LGBTQ-friendly art school, from which he graduated in 2013. Intrigued by his lineage tracing back to the Salem Witch Trials, Wade devoted three years post-graduation to studying divination, astrology, and the occult, aiming to delve deeper into the complexities of the human psyche.
In 2016, he re-entered the matchmaking field, eventually relocating to New York City in 2017 to broaden his scope and expertise. Combining his background in matchmaking with his in-depth knowledge of the esoteric, Wade seeks to forge cosmic connections within the LGBTIA+ community. Guided by the principle that compatibility exists for almost everyone, Wade is committed to matching each client with their ideal partner.
His matchmaking process is influenced by the gay liberation movement, disability advocacy, intersectionality, and human rights. Wade hopes to make the world a better place by fostering queer joy.
