Jack and Colleen met in high school; however, it was not love at first sight. It took Colleen three years until she started talking to Jack. Jack and Colleen began spending time together before school where Jack would graciously help Colleen with all of her math homework, and they finally started dating in December 2015. After graduation, with Jack at Iowa State and Colleen at St. Thomas, they began their long-distance relationship. All through college and three years post-college, Jack and Colleen continued their relationship where they matured and grew together but separately. After many long weekends in Wichita, and many FaceTimes and phone calls, Jack relocated to Minneapolis and proposed to Colleen in February, 2023. Cheers to their next adventures!
