We started dating our freshman year at Evergreen Park Community High School on November 10th, 2008 (via phone call while we were both with our friends, duh) and have been together ever since! We spent college long-distance from Champaign to West Layfayette, then Rome to London while studying abroad in spring 2015. Neil adopted Cooper senior year and we both graduated college in 2016. After finishing grad school, we moved to Wicker Park in 2018 and recently bought our first home in Avondale in 2020. We’re excited to get married and celebrate with everyone we love!
