We had our first meeting at Starbucks, and by our 3rd date we knew we had found our person. Karen fell in love with road trips (& Matt going rogue!), and he has embraced binge watching tv with Karen. We have traveled far and abroad enriching our relationship with adventure, history, and diversity of cultures. We are both foodies, love coffee (Matt roasts his own beans!) and making jam together. Matt loves the ocean, while Karen loves the redwoods. Matt is the plant whisperer, and Karen is the succulent whisperer. Matt is an extrovert, while Karen is an introvert. They say opposites attract, and we support each other’s passions. We look forward to our continued family blending, spending even more time together, and celebrations to come.
