Their story started in the USF Class of 2024 graduate group. Korbyn sent Ciara a message around Thanksgiving and she left him on read for a couple months. They ended up reconnecting on New Year's Eve when Ciara saw him on a dating app and quickly said, "Why are you on there? Just date me instead!" A few days later they went on their first date (which was also a triple date), and have been together and inseparable ever since.
