A friendly game of cards at college orientation set the groundwork to transform strangers to best friends. After years of studying and sharing meals together throughout college, we eventually fell in love and started dating. In medical school, coffee-fueled evenings and library marathons became routine, but we made sure to enjoy life outside of the books. From walks in Forest Park to exploring hikes in Missouri and Arizona, and trying nearly every restaurant in St. Louis, we created many memories together. We love to celebrate every milestone, big or small – whether it’s passing our first successful suture to enjoying our first trip as a couple to Chicago. We are grateful for the immense support provided by family and friends on our journey. Thank you for celebrating this next milestone with us as we begin this exciting new STEP of our lives together.
