We got married on August 16, 2020!

We had worked together for almost a year in the same Amazon building and knew of each other, but did not become friends until the beginning of 2017. We had a mutual friend at work (hey, Jess!), so naturally we started hanging out more and more. Around April 2017, Genie started applying for a transfer to work at the Amazon HQ in Seattle (where she is originally from) and soon after received an offer to transfer and start working in Seattle starting July. Despite the transfer process, we went on our first "official" date in May 2017 and have been attached at the hip ever since. After Genie left Texas, we started our long-distance journey which lasted about 13 months. The trick was to meet in a new city every month so that we had something to look forward to every month! Oh and FaceTime... LOTS of FaceTime.
