Little did we know when we started chemistry class in fall of 2012, we would be getting married 13 years later. It all started when we were assigned lab stations next to each other (thank god for alphabetical order right). During our time at Miami, we both secretly admired the other. We would study and exchange pleasantries at parties, but never took our relationship to the next level. Fast forward to spring of 2020 (covid times, scary) and Braden sees that Emily has matched in Pittsburgh for her residency. He mentions to Brendan Manahan that his college crush is about to be three hours from Columbus, he was waiting to make his move. Summer comes and goes, Emily starts her residency and is on call labor day weekend. She posts a silly instagram story and Braden makes his move. Emily tells Braden she is coming to Columbus to visit her dear friend (Gail) Dugger and the rest is history.
