The women behind Volo Match.
Volo Match is guided by real married traditional Catholic women who understand the seriousness of courtship, the dignity of marriage, and the importance of personal discernment. Our matchmakers bring warmth, wisdom, discretion, and lived Catholic experience to every introduction.
Emily is the founder of Volo Match and serves as Chief Matchmaker. A cradle Catholic who returned deeply to the Faith and found the Traditional Latin Mass, she brings conviction, discernment, and a love for Catholic family life to the heart of the company.
A former Psychological Operations Officer in the U.S. Army, Emily has a unique understanding of human behavior, communication, and influence. After leaving behind the career-first path, she embraced life as a wife, mother, and homemaker in Western North Carolina.
Her work through Volo Match is rooted in the belief that strong marriages, faithful families, and well-ordered homes are essential to restoring Christian culture. She helps men and women pursue courtship with wisdom, discretion, and purpose.
Darlene is a Catholic wife and mother based in South Florida. Originally from the Florida Keys, she brings a warm, grounded, and deeply personal approach to her work as a Volo Match matchmaker.
Married for more than two decades, Darlene understands the beauty and responsibility of Catholic family life. She and her family are active in their chapel community, where they worship, serve, and continue to grow in the Faith.
Her desire to work in the Catholic space comes from a sincere conviction that holy marriages and faithful families are essential to the restoration of Christendom. Through Volo Match, she is honored to help serious Catholics pursue marriage in a real, personal, and intentional way.
Lena is a California based cradle Catholic, wife, mother of many, grandmother, homeschooler, birth doula, and mentor to women and families seeking to build homes rooted in the Traditional Catholic faith. Together with her husband, her lifelong companion since youth, she has spent decades building a large family centered on the Traditional Latin Mass, the Faith without compromise, and living the liturgical year in the home.
Formed through many years of marriage, motherhood, sacrifice, loss, homeschooling, and guiding married children into family life of their own, Lena brings rare steadiness, maternal wisdom, discernment, and lived experience to her work as a matchmaker.
With her husband and confessor’s support, she is committed to helping sincere Catholics discern their vocation wisely and establish holy marriages rooted in right order, fidelity, and Christ-centered family life. She believes “Christ is King” is not merely a phrase, but the foundation upon which enduring Catholic families are built.
Nicki is a Catholic wife & mother of 5 children, based in Chesapeake, VA. She’s a convert who has attended the Traditional Latin Mass exclusively for 15 years. She sees marriage as the ordinary means of sanctification for humankind, and the context ordained by God through which He wills the continuation and proliferation of His Church.
Nicki sees her work at Volo Match as an expression of her vocation to marriage, a vocation that extends to supporting more couples as they discern and pursue fruitful unions in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Strong, holy marriages are the bedrock of society. As St John Paul II says, marriage is the “least inadequate” analogy for Christ’s love of His Bride, the Church. Married couples are called to learn the true meaning of His sacrificial love when He said, “This is My Body, given for you.”
Pam and her husband, David, met online in 1999 and have been married for 25 years. Together, they have been blessed with seven children — five boys and two girls. Their younger daughter has special needs, which Pam lovingly describes as the gift of being “the mother of a living saint.”
Pam and her family live west of Atlanta, where they have attended their FSSP parish for more than 10 years. With decades of married life, motherhood, and faithful Catholic family experience, Pam brings warmth, wisdom, and a deep love for the vocation of marriage to her work as a matchmaker.
She is grateful to be part of Volo Match and looks forward to helping serious Catholics discern marriage and build faithful little kingdoms of their own.
Katherine Weaver lives in Phoenix, Arizona, with her husband of 11 years, Brandon, and their two children, ages 6 and 3. She converted to Catholicism 12 years ago and has attended the Traditional Latin Mass for the past eight years. While Katherine works in the technology industry by day, she has a deep passion for helping traditional Catholics discern marriage and build strong, joyful, Christ-centered families.
For the past few years, Katherine and Brandon have assisted with marriage preparation, helping more than 30 couples prepare for the sacrament of matrimony. More than 10 babies have already been born from those marriages (what a blessing!). Katherine believes a strong marriage is rooted in communication, genuine friendship, and a shared commitment to keeping Christ at its center—remaining true to Venerable Fulton J. Sheen’s wisdom that it takes “three to get married.”
Joan is passionate about helping Catholic singles find their match by navigating intentional courtship with hope and clarity. She understands the reality of marriage—the good, the hard, and the holy—from the wisdom and grace gained through her thirty-year marriage and the raising of three adult children.
For many years, Joan served as a clinical nurse specialist across the U.S. Atlantic corridor, from New York to Florida, specializing in NICU, labor & delivery, and women’s health. She walked alongside those entrusted to her care during their most vulnerable and transformative life moments. She refined her assessment skills, listened with profound depth, and acted with calm, steady discernment and discretion.
Joan brings that same maternal heart, deep compassion, and understanding of human behavior to the ministry of Catholic matchmaking. Known to be trustworthy, intuitive, and detail-oriented, she is dedicated to providing her clients the same level of expert, specialized care she once provided her patients.
Deena is a Catholic wife and mother living in southwest Florida. She brings a warm, faithful, and deeply personal approach to her work as a Volo Match matchmaker, rooted in a deep love for Jesus Christ and His Church.
She and her husband, Christopher, met online and have been married for 28 years. Together they have raised four daughters, now grown, and have been blessed with two grandchildren.
Raised in the Faith as a cradle Catholic, Deena has watched God’s hand shape her family through every season of married life. Her family attends the Traditional Latin Mass (Vetus Ordo Missae) with the FSSP, where they are formed in the fullness of the Faith and strive to order their home around Christ the King.
She views Catholic marriage as a true vocation. A sacramental marriage is the ordinary path to sanctity for most souls, and the foundation upon which faithful Catholic families are built. Her desire to serve you in this work comes from a sincere conviction that strong, holy, and beautiful Catholic marriages are essential to building up a Christian culture and society firmly rooted in Christ.
Through Volo Match, Deena is honored to walk alongside serious Catholics as they discern God’s will for their lives and pursue a Christ-centered marriage with intention, chastity, and complete trust in God’s providence.
Michelle is a Catholic wife and mother based in the Oklahoma City area. She and her husband both grew up Catholic and have developed a deeper devotion to Traditional Catholicism and the Traditional Latin Mass in recent years.
As a young mother, Michelle understands the daily demands and blessings of family life. She brings warmth, sincerity, and a servant’s heart to her role as Matchmaker Assistant, helping support the behind-the-scenes work that allows Volo Match to serve clients and candidates well.
Michelle is excited to contribute to Volo Match’s mission of helping create more holy Catholic families. She sees this work as a sacred calling and is honored to support the team in whatever ways she can.
