Conor and I had met at various accounting firm recruiting events before spending the entirety of one talking to each other about tv shows we loved. Covid hit shortly after and we didn’t see each other in class anymore but after he messaged me and commented #sharkweek on my shark diving picture I decided to message him. I asked to go fishing with him and after spending three weeks quarantining we finally went fishing at Lake Martin and went on our first official date two days later.

Chloe and I got engaged on July 3, 2022. Chloe’s family came to my families house for the day to celebrate the 4th of July. I had told Chloe we were going to go to a nice lunch on the water via the boat. We proceeded out into the Gulf of Mexico before “lunch” to drive down the beach for a bit. After driving down the beach for a little bit we found a nice spot in the Gulf to sit and talk for a minute. When she was looking the other way I got out the ring and asked her if she would marry me. Thankfully she said yes and we ended up going back to celebrate with the families.
