We met through mutual friends in high school but didn't really get to know each other until going to the same college, the University of Delaware. We started officially dating February 15th, 2017. Our first official date was to the Point Pleasant Boardwalk to play mini golf. In 2018 we went on our first vacation together to Disney World, FL, and have been back multiple times since then. Despite living in different states for the past few years while Colleen finished OT school, and started her new job we have continued to make time (and numerous trips) to spend quality time together. Some of our favorite things to do together have been going to the beach, trips to get ice cream (at Ralph's Italian Ice in NJ), watching movies and re-runs of old TV shows (i.e. Friends), and hanging with Billy (the Conway family puppy). Finally, after 7 and a half years of dating, we got engaged July 12th, 2024 in Normandy Beach, NJ. We are so excited to celebrate our upcoming wedding with all the friends and family that have meant so much to us along the way!
