How we met
We often laugh when we think about how our love story began—at Polo Ralph Lauren, of all places. Josue had worked there before I did, and one day, he walked into the store. Neither of us had any idea that this chance encounter would be the start of something truly beautiful. Now, fourteen years later, our love has only grown deeper and stronger. We’ve bought our first home, and the joy of welcoming our daughter into the world has been the most incredible gift. Our home is a place filled with laughter, love, and our shared passion for cooking and hosting friends and family. Looking ahead, we’re excited about the future—growing our family even more and taking trips with our little ones. Our journey is a reminder of how powerful love, commitment, and shared dreams can be. We can’t wait to continue walking through life together, hand in hand, heart to heart.
