Meet Amy Andersen
The Cupid of Silicon Valley™
In over two decades of working with the most eligible men and women of the San Francisco Bay Area, Amy Andersen has established herself as the premier matchmaker for discerning professionals in Silicon Valley — what began as a local practice has since evolved into a global brand, while remaining deeply rooted in the values and spirit of Silicon Valley.
Her thoroughly researched methods and well-honed personal intuition allow Amy to approach her work as both an art and a science, and she consistently helps even her most high-achieving clients find lasting and deeply intimate connections that bring a sense of peace, balance, and acceptance to their lives in a way that few have known before.
True love- and the many forms it takes- is something Amy knows deeply. Since founding Linx Dating in 2003, she has devoted more than two decades to helping others find meaningful connection and lasting partnership. In 2014, she welcomed her son — her best friend and greatest teacher – whose empathy, curious mind, humor, and values make him, as she lovingly describes, “a heart on legs.”
A romantic and values-based woman at her core, Amy truly understands the full spectrum of love and loss- the cycles of life that shape the human experience. She knows what it means to be single and searching, what it means to love from the purest form, and what it means to rebuild and grow through change. Having lived, loved, and evolved through her own chapters, she brings a depth of empathy to her work that few can match. Her clients often remark that Amy doesn’t just advise from experience—she understands from the inside out.
Beyond Linx, Amy lives for meaningful conversations and long walks with her son, time with family and cherished friends, and experiences that nourish the soul. She loves all kinds of travel—whether family adventures, international trips with VIP clients, or solo wellness retreats. Active and energized, she finds fulfillment in dancing, running, hiking, and exploring the outdoors. She embraces healthy living, most genres of music, crisp morning air, the sparkle of a great glass of champagne, belly laughter with friends, and moments of learning, growth, and spirituality.
Amy is increasingly channeling her energy into philanthropy through Cupid for a Cause, the charitable arm of Linx Dating. Recent initiatives include mobilizing her Silicon Valley network to support families and animals affected by the Los Angeles fires, and partnering with Little Wishes to bring joy to hospitalized children facing chronic and critical illness. She’s also an active supporter of her son’s school community, helping bridge the gap between public funding and the true cost of a high-quality education. In February 2025, Amy hosted a Cupid for a Cause gala attended by more than 300 guests—raising meaningful funds and awareness for those impacted by the LA fires through the California Community Foundation and Pasadena Humane Society.
Having lived in Silicon Valley for over two decades, Amy is deeply woven into the fabric of its community—embracing both its spirit of innovation and its heart for connection. A passionate advocate for technology’s potential to bring people together, she approaches her work and life with optimism, curiosity, and purpose. Though her role at Linx is public-facing, Amy is a private person by nature- anchored by integrity, gratitude, and an unwavering belief in love’s ability to transform lives.
Amy lives in Silicon Valley with her son and their two beloved rescue dogs, Sammy and Hugo. A happy person by nature—perpetually optimistic, entrepreneurial, and a true lover of life—she radiates warmth, depth, and authenticity, qualities that define both her life and her work with Linx Dating.
