How We Met

May 2018

Emma and Will met freshman year of college at MSUM. Living on the same floor they had meant plenty of hallway hangouts, group dinners, and late-night study breaks. They became close friends over the course of the year before Emma (never one to miss an opportunity) proudly pointed out that we’d make a pretty great couple. Will wasn’t totally convinced at first, but when they ended up as partners for an Educational Psychology project, everything started to fall into place. Somewhere between notetaking and procrastinating, a first date lead to many more. Two cats, four degrees, one house, and eight years— and they’ve been a team ever since.
