We met during The Lantern Theatre's production of 110 Stories in 2016, where we were both cast in ensemble roles. Toward the end of 2017, we both found ourselves down in the dumps, so we checked in with each other and listened when either of us needed to talk. It was a special friendship that dug us both out of some rough times. By summer of 2018, we were meeting about once a week to chat about life. We called them our margarita nights, and we would pick a restaurant and only order cheese dip and margaritas while we talked until we lost track of time. That's where the magic happened. After a few months of cheese dip and margaritas, we decided we didn't want to be just friends anymore, and you know the rest.
