Nicole and Kyle first crossed paths at a house party in Santa Barbara- at the age of twenty-one. Kyle jokingly claims that he noticed Nicole right away, but that she did not pay attention to him the first time they met. It was summer of 2013 and Kyle was about to attend Santa Barbara City College for a year. He had moved in with a group of guys- old friends and new. Nicole had just moved back from studying abroad in Barcelona and set to finish her last year at UCSB. Some of Kyle's new roommates happened to be Nicole's old dorm friends, so it was easy friendship. Six months later we finally admitted to liking each other and had our first date at a drive-in theater in Santa Barbara. 7 years later, we've got our degrees, interned, started our careers, traveled, lived together in LA, and welcomed one mischievous frenchie puppy into our family (Leo).
