It all started in 2020 on Bumble... Emma's dating profile caught Rashad's eye after she called out that she loved the NBA and wings... say less... he was intrigued! Emma reached out first and they messaged for a few days back and forth before Emma said "ehhh i'm not sure" so it fell off. A few weeks later, Rashad reached back out after he saw her having a great time on Labor Day Weekend with her friends via Instagram and really, the rest was history. They spent the rest of the weekend on FaceTime and immediately made plans to meet in-person. Emma's friends knew something was up when she agreed to take a road trip with Rashad the next weekend to Nashville after only knowing each other for a week! In Rashad's mind... what better way to get to know someone than be stuck in a car for 10 hours on a roadtrip?? You could say they have been inseparable ever since. Our weeks, months, and years following that first road trip led to gourmet home cooked dinners, seafood boils, monopoly and spades nights with friends, NBA playoffs, Duolingo, moving in together to our apartment in DC, pool days, drinks with friends, many trips to Phoenix, and now parenting our baby Nash together. Fast forward to 2025 and we ready for the thrill of a lifetime - starting our lives and a family together! Cheers !!
