Our story began during the fall semester of our sophomore year when we were introduced by a mutual friend. While we hit it off right away, it wasn’t until our junior year that we shared our first class together—an English class that would unknowingly change everything. After some relentless (but endearing) pursuit, he finally asked me out on September 5th, 2014. That moment marked the start of an incredible journey filled with laughter, love, and countless adventures. We can't wait to celebrate the next chapter of our story with all of you!

Our journey to engagement began with a lighthearted nudge from my grandmother during a family dinner, when she jokingly asked, "Why haven’t you proposed yet?" Little did we know, that moment would set everything in motion. He made a deeply meaningful trip to where my dad is buried to seek his approval, a gesture that touched my heart profoundly. Then, over dinner, he asked my mom for her blessing—a true testament to his thoughtfulness and respect for my family. After three months of meticulous planning, he asked me to be his forever on April 20th, 2024, and of course, I said yes!
