Sky and Janae met at a news startup in Portland after Janae moved back to Oregon after graduating college in 2017. Sky already had worked there for a year at United News International as the studio manager. A lot of sending each other YouTube videos over work chat, lots of group hangouts, and some flirty thrift shopping later, they said, "Hey, let's try dating" in 2018 (Thank you Alex Bartick for sending Janae United News International's writer position job posting!) Then Sky got a radio gig in Chico, and Janae got a reporter gig in Portland, so driving hundreds of miles round trip every other weekend was in order! But they still were into each other after all that long distance, even said "I love you," and made a plan to move in together in 2019, renovate a school bus into a home in 2020, and move to Redding in 2021 to pursue creative dreams! Two pups later, Amanita and Herb, and now they are ready to say, "Hey, let's get married!"
