After 20 years in Boston, Adam returned to his northern New England roots in 2014—with zero desire to mingle with Bostonians ever again. Meanwhile, Leigh was busy climbing mountains and enduring a string of terrible dates and even worse dating app conversations. Then, in 2020—peak COVID times—the magic of the interwebs connected Adam to Leigh, who (plot twist!) was living in Somerville of all places. We’re still not sure what the dating algorithms were thinking, but we’re forever grateful they worked their weird little magic. Leigh said “hello,” Adam asked the all-important question: “What’s your favorite vegetable?”, and the rest was history. Leigh has since been fully assimilated into northern New England life, and together we’ve built our happy little family with our dog, Henry, and our cats, Luke and Leia. We can’t wait to keep writing this story together as an officially married couple—and to celebrate the start of our next chapter surrounded by the people we love most.
