It all started in the summer of 2019 when we both took a political economy class together. With only 20 students, you’d think Marcus would have noticed me—but he had no idea I was even in the class! Fate (and an online class forum) eventually brought us together. We started chatting, met for coffee, and kept finding reasons to see each other. And the rest is history. Fast forward a few years, and Marcus brought everything full circle—he proposed right outside the very classroom where we first met (see picture at the bottom) :)
