We met in Southern Maryland in October 2015 after we both relocated from our hometowns to pursue job opportunities in a new place. After a year of many group trips to Buckets, The Tiki Bar, DC, Baltimore, NYC, and Europe, our friendship eventually sparked into our long-distance love story.
We continued the adventure together with our precious cat baby Meka, making our way up the East Coast. We began dating in 2017 and moved to New York City together. After two years split between Manhattan and Brooklyn, we began a new adventure in Boston where we've lived ever since (except for a quick 6-month detour to Paris in 2022). We've made so many wonderful friends along the way and have had the most fun exploring new cities, rocking out at concerts, picnicking in parks, and finding new dim sum restaurants together over the past 6 years.
Well, when in Paris! Nick *finally* popped the question in a romantic park next to the Eiffel Tower during our 6 months living in the City of Love. Nick planned ahead to include family members from both sides and it was so special to spend the rest of the day with our loved ones. There were many champagne toasts and happy tears - it was the perfect day!
