After meeting her significant other on the professional networking platform and subsequently relocating to the United States, she shared her positive experience with Daily Mail, emphasizing her reluctance to return to conventional dating apps.
Initially reaching out to her now ex-partner on LinkedIn for their opinion on a product, Shann's relationship developed through shared interests.
Despite living in Singapore at the time, her partner traveled from Los Angeles to meet her within a month, and they eventually moved in together in the United States. Although their relationship ended after six months, Shann expressed her preference for LinkedIn over dating apps, citing a perceived lower likelihood of negative experiences.
Shann stated that she has no intention of returning to dating apps and emphasized her requirement for potential suitors to connect with her on LinkedIn before meeting in person. She highlighted her concern for women's safety on dating apps and expressed a focus on self-improvement instead. Additionally, Shann mentioned influencing her friends to adopt LinkedIn as a dating tool.
