Jeff and Kelsey were introduced in 2017 by Joseph, their close, mutual friend. According to Jeff, he was interested in Kelsey long before Joseph introduced them. Joseph made multiple attempts to encourage Kelsey to pursue a relationship with Jeff. However, Kelsey refused because she was consumed with nursing school. Approximately one year later, Jeff and Kelsey's paths crossed as they worked at UAB hospital. Finally, Jeff, being the bold guy that he is, approached Kelsey and started a conversation; since then, they have not gone one day without talking to each other. While getting to know each other, they developed a meaningful friendship. Their relationship grew stronger after spending 3 years apart in different cities while Kelsey completed her Doctorate degree in Memphis, TN. It's true, distance truly does make the heart grow fonder! On Kelsey's 27th birthday, Jeff popped the ultimate question and Kelsey responded "Absolutely!".
