How we met

Our story started in 2017 through mutual friends. At the time, I was the president of the Hmong Student Association in high school and was hosting a volleyball fundraiser at South Side Park, where Jimmy and his friends came to play. The next day, I brought my sister (Christina) over to Jimmy’s house to swim with her boyfriend (Deeder) and also hang out with friends. I ended up staying while everyone was swimming. Jimmy was grilling and asked if I wanted to swim. I said no at first, but he later brought me one of his shirts and convinced me to jump in. When I got cold, I went to stand by the fire, and that’s when we really started talking. We talked the rest of the night—and that’s where our story began. 🤍
