Adam began working at Deloitte in September 2011, around the same time that Danni was recruiting with Deloitte out of UCSB for a summer internship. The following summer in 2012, Danni began interning at Deloitte and Adam actively participated in the internship program serving as one of the "buddies" that Deloitte paired interns with. One night that summer, Adam coordinated a happy hour at Cabo Catina for the interns and buddies to network over some margaritas on Deloitte's dime. Soon after arriving at the happy hour, Danni was introduced to Adam and the two talked for most of the night, instantly connecting. They became friends over the summer but the internship came to an end and Danni returned to UCSB for her senior year of college. The two didn't see each other for over a year… Fifteen months later, Danni had graduated from UCSB and was working full time at Deloitte. Adam was going on his third year at the company and already thinking about his exit strategy from the Big 4 accounting world. It was time for the annual holiday party and two of Adam's future groomsmen happened to be doing a birthday dinner the same night. Despite wanting to skip the holiday party to go to his friends' birthday dinner, destiny called and Adam went to the holiday party at the Majestic in Downtown LA . When Adam and Danni saw each other they talked the rest of the night and Adam immediately began thinking about how he was going to ask Danni out on a date. One month and a CPA exam later, they had that first date and the rest was history.

Adam typically plans an activity for Danni's birthday each year and tries to keep it a surprise despite Danni's relentless pursuit to get it out of him. For her 26th birthday, Adam told Danni that they had plans in Downtown LA and they started off the afternoon with lunch (obviously) because there was no way Adam was starting the big day on an empty stomach. After a quick lunch, the two walked over to a building that didn't look familiar on the outside, but once they walked in, Danni quickly realized where they were...the Majestic in Downtown LA where they had their work holiday party. Adam walked Danni over to bottom the grand staircase where the two had reconnected nearly four years prior and got down on one knee and proposed. After they left downtown, Adam took Danni out to Malibu for one final surprise at Malibu Wines. The two walked into the outdoor venue and headed to the back private gazebo which was filled with family and friends ready to celebrate their engagement!
