During our high school and college years, we both began taking ceramics courses. Fortunately, those classes turned into a passionate hobby that we've both continued through the years. In 2016, Brittany moved to Lancaster and decided to find a local studio to continue her art. During Brittany's first tour of the studio, the owner was quick to point out work from her favorite student. If you haven't guessed yet, his name was Charlie. Admittedly, Brittany was quite impressed with the art she saw that evening. Eventually our paths crossed in those first few months after Brittany joined the studio. The first several encounters were simple pleasantries, mostly just hellos. Eventually casual conversations began. Many months later we took a chance on dating, and the rest is history.
