We started dating in September of 2015 as sophomores in college. With a relationship built on friendship and a shared hometown, the 2-hour difference between the University of Cincinnati and The Ohio State University was no match for us. The first four years of our relationship were full of weekly treks to each other's college towns to see one another. We would also meet halfway for movie and dinner dates--shoutout Beavercreek, Ohio! Now, we've been together for over 10 years. In that decade, we moved across the country and settled into a new home: the Bay Area. We adopted the most perfect dog, Swiss, and we've surrounded ourselves with the best of friends. We've traveled and explored. Our adventure for 2026? Getting married surrounded by our very favorite family and friends.
