Adam and Kristin went to Neuqua Valley High School together. Back then Adam had a little (big) crush on Kristin, but was too shy to say hello. They completely parted ways for college and at one point were halfway across the world from each other while Kristin taught English in Colombia and Adam was an Au Pair in France. However, serendipity eventually brought them back together when they were accepted into the UIC College of Medicine class of 2021. During their orientation, Kristin recognized Adam and approached him with "hey, you went to my high school right?" to which he rep(lied) "Yeah! What's your name again?" (turns out old crushes die hard). After this, they found themselves in the same group of friends. Once Kristin was single it didn't take long for her to fall for his charm (Adam will claim he strategically played the long game). Once they got together they became inseparable, tackling medical school, residency, and now fellowship together, all while living together with their fur child, Rue, in the beautiful city of Chicago.
