We went to the same middle and high school, and while we likely met in that time, it was unmemorable for both of us. Flash forward to August 2014, a couple of weeks before each of us would leave for our first semester at the University of Pittsburgh, and bridesmaid Alex Piora, friend to each of us, arranged a movie night for the three of us and made us exchange numbers, thinking we might both want to know someone when we got out to Pittsburgh. We attended a couple of orientation events together and kept in touch loosely that first semester until finals week, when Preston invited Casey to Phipps Conservatory and then a Christmas-themed movie night in Tower A two nights later. By the time finals was over and we were back in Newtown for Christmas break, we were a couple.
