Andrew and Carissa met while attending SUNY New Paltz on November 10, 2012 and have been together ever since. After 6 years full of love and laughter Andrew took Carissa to Piazzale Michelangelo in Florence, Italy, and as church bells rang at sunset he proposed to Carissa atop the steps of San Miniato al Monte on August 23, 2018. While it was not the wedding they originally planned, they celebrated their union as husband and wife on October 3, 2020.
