We met on a dating app during Christiana's 4th year of dental school in Halifax. At the time, she had already secured a job in her home state of Maine. We continued to go on dates weekly, and decided when it was time for Christiana to leave that we didn't want to part ways! Christiana returned to the states for her final clinical dental board exam, and left her car in Canada at Sid's house (see what he did there). She returned to Halifax and they had an amazing summer together before she had to leave and start working in Maine. After 4 years of long distance, and many trips between Halifax and Maine, they finally moved in together in January 2026!
