We met at work when we were both patient care technicians in the Emergency Room at OSF. We decided to hang out "as friends", but that didn't last long before we started dating. As coworkers, we decided to keep our relationship quiet for awhile, but couldn't keep it secret for long (thanks to Tara Cruz's investigative work!). Over the last 10 years, we have navigated through challenges and had amazing opportunities together- living long distance, moving in together, buying our first home, getting our first fur baby together, PA school, medical school. Our love for scuba diving and travel has led to several amazing national and international trips. We are so thankful to have each other and our wonderful family and friends, and look forward to what the future holds for us!
