It all started on a cool, spring afternoon in D.C, April 9th, 2021. We decided to start working out together at the local track for our upcoming Army fitness test. We started meeting there a couple times a week to workout and eventually, John found the courage to ask Anne on a real date. We met at a coffee shop on the Georgetown waterfront, and had a great time walking around the monuments. We became the best of friends that summer during our Basic Officer's training at Fort Sill and Fort Sam Houston, and have been inseparable ever since. In February 2023 John proposed at that same coffee shop in Georgetown where we had our first date! It was an easy yes. We will graduate from medical school on May 19th, and are super excited for our next stop: Honolulu! We will be stationed at Tripler Army Medical Center for continued medical training. We are excited to continue writing this story with each and every one of you. Thank you for your love and support.
