We met during undergrad at the University of the Sciences, where we were both part of the 3+3 Physical Therapy program. What began as a shared academic path quickly turned into a meaningful friendship built on long days of studying, mutual goals, and plenty of time spent together. At first, romance wasn’t exactly in the picture—especially since I didn’t like Jared right away. But as time went on, friendship turned into something deeper, and it became clear that there was more than just chemistry in the classroom. On September 13, 2019, we officially began dating (our first date P.F. Changs and Dave and Busters), marking the start of a new chapter neither of us could have fully anticipated. Since then, our relationship has been shaped by the things we love most: hiking new trails, running side by side, traveling to new places, and always searching for our next favorite restaurant. Through it all, we’ve grown together—supporting one another, laughing often, and building a life rooted in love, adventure, and partnership. What started as a chance meeting in undergrad turned into a forever kind of love, and we can’t wait to continue this journey together.
