Here's the story of our relationship...

Although we officially met on the first day of college, we became close friends when we coordinated the PSIP program at Saint Joseph's University together in our senior year in 2018.

After graduation, we started the ACESJU graduate program in 2019. We both began teaching at the Gesu School in north Philadelphia. Jack taught Spanish and Kristen taught kindergarten.

We quickly became best friends (as well as chore partners, co-workers, carpool buddies, and housemates!)

We graduated from grad school in June of 2021 and quickly realized that we still wanted to spend every day together!

At the end of that summer, Jack took Kristen to visit his cousins in Colorado and introduced her as his girlfriend (yes, this was how we made it official)!

Over the past few years as a couple, we have loved to travel (especially in our pop-up camper!), go hiking, visit breweries, and spend time with our families and friends at the lake and the shore.

We got engaged in December 2023! Jack surprised Kristen by taking her on a walk in their favorite local arboretum in Philly.

We are so excited to celebrate our wedding with you in June 2025!
