Johnny and Marisol met at Stanford Middle school as two adolescent pre-teens. They continued on as classmates at Millikan High School and ended up at Cal State Long Beach at the same time. Although they had mutual friends, their interactions were few. Fast forward to being friends on Myspace and later Facebook, where Marisol received a DM from Johnny about his admiration for her Hip Hop knowledge and ability to use it in her classroom as a high school English teacher. Johnny and Marisol now have two beautiful and intelligent dogs, Koffee and Mischa. They both work as teachers for the same district and share a passion for food and music.
