They met through OkCupid in February of 2015. Noah was working at the Hyatt Times Square hotel and Shannon was studying Organizational Behavior at NYU. After chatting on OkCupid for some time, numbers were exchanged, and it was agreed to go on a first date to test the waters. They had originally agreed to meet up on a Wednesday the following week. 2 days later, Noah texted Shannon asking her what she was up to, and she said she was going out dancing with her friends. Alarms went off in Noah’s head and he immediately offered to meetup sooner the next day, fearful she would meet someone else before they met up for their first date and she wouldn’t realize that she was dating down as a result. Since Noah was a slave to the hotel, he offered to have the first date at the rooftop bar on the 54th floor of his hotel. The night of the first date, drinks were poured, heights were conquered, and their first kiss was shared. The rest is history.
