Flagstaff, AZ
A Connecticut girl met a California boy in Flagstaff, AZ of all places. Niko lived in Flagstaff for 9 months working as a Production Manager at Mission Linen Supply. He had just adopted a Great Dane puppy named Niko Jr when Allie drove across the country to start her fieldwork rotation completing her masters degree in Occupational Therapy. They met on the dating app, Hinge, and had their first official date at a local Irish bar called Collins. Niko and Allie are best friends and have been together everyday since. In their last two and a half years together, they have bought their first home right in Flagstaff and have successfully blended Niko Jr and Bella, Allie’s 13-year-old cat, into a small, happy family.
