Danielle Dietzek is one of the founders of Fourplay Social, the social connection platform reimagining how single people meet, date, and build community. Take a listen!
Founded by Julie Griggs and Danielle Dietzek—two healthcare professionals who were sparked with the idea for Fourplay just before the COVID-19 pandemic hit, and built up the app while working the frontlines, Fourplay was born out of personal frustration with the isolating nature of traditional dating apps. What started as a fun idea (turning first dates into double dates) quickly evolved into a mission-driven platform rooted in the belief that connection is essential to human well-being.
