It all started at Georgia Tech back in 2017. Sometime at a football game / High Five Friday / Chi Phi party, Lauren and Cooper met. Their friendship took off during their Europe study abroad trip in 2018! They spent the summer studying on weekdays, traveling on the weekends, and supporting each other through the tough stuff (multivariable calculus & dishes). In January 2019, they made it official! With Lauren’s Delta intern flight benefits and COVID cancelling campus classes, they spent the rest of college turning the world into their backyard. January 2024, the two moved to San Diego with Kara and her dog, Franky. Cooper and Lauren settled into a nice routine - walks to enjoy the weather and nature, zoo time, swims in the ocean, bird watching, camping, and supporting each other in their careers. On a beautiful February day in 2026, Cooper asked for Lauren's hand in marriage, starting their best adventure yet!!!!
