We're getting married!

Our story starts in different states: Sam grew up in Western New York and I grew up in New Jersey, surely not knowing that our paths would soon cross in Baltimore, Maryland. We both care deeply about helping others, and were separately making our way to the Linwood School where we met in 2013 at work. We were teaching students by day, and before long we were making eyes across the hall and engaging in after-hours banter. We continued on our educational paths and completed our master’s program together in the spring of 2017. Our easy-going connection continued to grow into the fun, light-hearted, and genuine relationship we have today. Never leave a bar without trying a chicken wing, if you see a brewery- you must stop, and the ocean is a required activity in the warmer months. Our story has brought us to countless states, four countries, filled with steady spontaneity and finally to the town we have claimed home on June 26, 2020, where Sam proposed floating on kayaks. To know us is to understand how we are always ready for a good time and we cannot wait to celebrate our special day with all of our family and friends! -Colleen
