We met at Labcorp in Burlington, NC. We both worked 3rd shift in the Microbiology department. Ashley made the first move and we started talking. We spent one day together and have been glued to one another ever since. We officially started dating November 4, 2018.
We got engaged on the day we closed on our new home together. It was a complete surprise for Ashley! As we turned the key and walked into our new home, a beautiful display of roses and candles greeted us. Joey popped the question and we celebrated at The Willard in downtown Raleigh with our close friends and family.
