We met in grad school at UPenn when we both worked in the same lab for a semester. We made great partners in science but, fortunately, ended up in different labs for our studies. For the next few months we maintained a mutual liking that led to (finally!) Alex asking DJ for date after the CAMB symposium. We had our first date over ramen on October 9th. We found in each other a mutual nerdiness, love of books, and love for our families. A second date sealed the deal when we spent hours just talking in the park, sharing family stories. We knew we were hooked on each other and shared the most important of bonds. Our bond has only deepened and grown with time since those early days and we're excited to start the next part of our journey together. Thank you for being a part of it! We cannot wait to celebrate with you!
