Our paths first crossed during our freshman year at the University of Nebraska. Rebecca, a dedicated member of the track team, was pursuing her passion for food science. Brenden, on the other hand, was an active member of his fraternity, balancing his studies in finance and pre-med. Our worlds were different, yet they intertwined through mutual friends and memorable college parties. From the moment we met, we never stopped spending our time together. After graduation, our paths forced us into long distance due to work and school before Rebecca got a job that moved her back to Nebraska where we have been living the last 3 years.
