Drayton and Marisa’s story began in the most unexpected place: a Spanish class at New York University. Drayton was a pre-med undergraduate, focused and driven, while Marisa was studying marketing, creative and ambitious. The moment they met, it was love at first sight though neither of them knew just how much their lives were about to change. About a week into the semester, Drayton made his move. He sat next to Marisa and casually asked if she wanted to study together for a test that was still three weeks away. Marisa, who had already secretly been very into Drayton, was completely over the moon. After class, she worked up the courage to wait for him and ask if he wanted to walk home together. As fate would have it, they discovered they were living in the same dorm building in Gramercy, New York. That walk home turned into countless conversations, laughter, and the beginning of something truly special. From that day on, September 23rd, 2015, they’ve been inseparable. What started as a study session quickly grew into a partnership rooted in love, support, and shared dreams. Today, Drayton and Marisa are not only building a life together but also owning businesses side by side, proving that the best relationships grow when two people choose each other every day. And it all started with one Spanish class, one brave question, and a walk home that led them straight to forever. ❤️
