Mike and Nicole met while working at North Star Daycare at 17 years old. After 3 years, they moved to Columbus, Ohio to attend college at The Ohio State University. While attending, Mike started his career working in the sport industry which lead to working in football. Nicole realized her passion and calling for the legal industry. While living in Ohio, their puppy Theo was added to their family, who brings so much joy to their lives. Throughout the 10+ years together, they have learned to love God first, which showed them how to love each other as God loves all of us. With the help of their friends, Mike proposed to Nicole on Friday, April 11, 2025, at her favorite place on Ohio State's campus, Mirror Lake. She, of course, said "yes!" Together, they are unstoppable, pushing each other to their greatest potential and ultimately being each other's best friend and soul mate. "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
