George and Marisa's love story began in 2018 when they were introduced by a mutual friend. At the time, neither was looking for a serious relationship—Marisa was about to graduate and return to Seattle from Central Washington University, while George was living in Yakima. However, after spending nearly every moment together for two months, they realized their connection was undeniable and decided to start dating. Despite the challenges of a long-distance relationship, with Marisa in Seattle and George still in Yakima, they were committed to making it work. For three years, they cherished every weekend they could spend together. In 2021, their lives took a joyful turn when they discovered they were expecting. This happy news brought them together in Seattle, where they began building a life as a family. In 2022, they welcomed their beautiful daughter, Emryn, and were over the moon with joy. On their six-year anniversary, George proposed to Marisa, marking a new chapter in their journey together.
