We met while we were both pursuing our MBAs at UCONN back in 2019. Eric sat in front of Maria and was constantly playing tricks on her like stealing her pencil case. We were friends until one day something changed. Next thing we knew, we were spending more time together and never stopped. Eric showed his romantic side with all of his cute gestures. Maria had always wanted a Crush soda bottle on valentines day (a high school tradition), and on their first valentines day together, Eric showed up late to class and dropped two Crush bottles onto her desk <3. We have since gone on tons of adventures over the years between doing long distance during residency and traveling around the world. We enjoy spending time with our families in CT and CA. As many of you know we were married on February 3, 2024 in Eric's family living room. We were so happy to be able to celebrate this with both of our families, specifically Eric's dad, Tony. We will miss him at our celebration in July but are so grateful to have been able to celebrate with him back in February. We are very excited to celebrate with all of our friends and family in July and hope everyone is able to celebrate with us! Love, Maria & Eric
