On a sunny spring day at Chapman University in Orange, California, Katharine and Brandon met for the very first time. They quickly became friends and enjoyed bonding over their athletic endeavors at Chapman, Katharine playing volleyball and Brandon playing football. They grew even closer in the beginning of 2019, when Brandon asked Katharine to be his girlfriend. After that, the rest was history! They enjoyed spending their time together making trips to Disney, going to the beach, traveling, and spending time with their friends! One of their favorite things to do together is travel. Together, they have visited many cities in California, as well as Hawaii, Washington, New York, and Nevada! They hope to travel together sometime soon outside of the country, so stay tuned for their next adventure! On January 5, 2024, Katharine and Brandon celebrated their 5 year anniversary of being a couple. This is also the day that Brandon asked Katharine to be his wife! Brandon took Katharine to a beach-front dinner in Laguna Beach, CA. Little did she know, after dinner Katharine was surprised with friends and family leading her to a spot near the water where Brandon was waiting on one knee and a question he wanted to ask... and she said yes! Brandon and Katharine currently live in Garden Grove, California, with their dog Bailey that they adopted together in January of 2022!
