Sourabh, a 28-year-old living in California, volunteered to have his Tinder profile reviewed for Insider's Dating App Clinic, a series where we ask experts how to revamp your dating profiles to increase your chances of finding a match.

Sourabh said he's looking for someone who is empathetic, understanding, and economical. His deal breakers are people who are extravagant, those who smoke or drink a lot, and "a couch potato," he told Insider.

Ultimately, Sourabh wants to find his soulmate. He described himself as humble and humorous, a lover of travel, an introvert, and a long-term planner who loves photography and cooking.

Blaine Anderson, founder of men's date-coaching service Dating by Blaine, told Insider how Sourabh could improve his dating profile and increase his chances of finding a match.

Anderson loved the first photo Sourabh picked for his Tinder profile because it encapsulates his personality. The eye-catching setting is ideal too.
