Once upon a time, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, fate decided to play matchmaker, and it did so through a little app called Hinge. Our story kicked off with a quirky first date at Columbus Park. Picture this: us, sitting on opposite ends of a park bench, intrigued by each other's presence. While the spark wasn't immediate, something was captivating about the conversation and connection we shared. Who would've thought a park bench would become the start of something so special? As we got to know each other, we started adventures together. Our second date? A hike through nature's playground, sharing laughs and stories under the open sky. Then there was date number three – classic Greg move – sneaking us onto the terrace of Kean University's STEM building for a view of the New York skyline. It didn't take long for us to realize there was something real here. Just three weeks after that slightly awkward first date, on June 15th, 2020, we decided to make it official. We dove into this crazy thing called love, armed with nothing but honesty, laughter, and a whole lot of respect. Our love story? It's all about shared passions and unforgettable moments. From jet-setting to destinations like Cancun and the Dominican Republic to diving into local cuisines and discovering hidden gems in our own backyard, we've made memories that'll last a lifetime. Life threw its curveballs, but our love held strong. On December 15th, 2023, Greg, surrounded by family, popped the question, sealing our fate with a resounding "of course!" Our journey together? It's been anything but ordinary, filled with laughter, adventures, and a whole lot of love. And as we step into this next chapter, hand in hand, we can't wait to see where life takes us next.
