It all began in late November 2022. I was visiting New York City when I first remember hearing Tim’s voice over the phone. From that day on, we talked every single day—no expectations, just a growing connection that felt natural and deeply meaningful. Not long after, I moved to NYC for school, and even with the distance, our bond only deepened. What kept us close wasn’t just conversation—it was the way we connected spiritually and emotionally. Our love story didn’t unfold overnight. It’s been a series of intentional choices, choosing one another every single day. Our first official date was at Hamilton, a cozy restaurant in Washington, D.C., where we finally met in person. From that moment, we became each other's safe space, weathering distance and life transitions together. Then on April 26, 2025, Tim asked the question that would change everything—and I said yes. Now here we are, ready to begin this new chapter, side by side, without the miles between us. And we couldn’t be more excited for what’s to come.
