It all started in high school precalc, where we spent more time trying to make each other laugh than solving equations. Little did we know, those early giggles would one day grow into something real. We crossed paths again in college thanks to fate (and a pair of roommates who were dating), but life had its own timing. We shared some fun memories in college, but it wasn’t until the summer of 2023 that we truly reconnected and something just clicked. After all those years, we both felt an undeniable connection and a deep appreciation for who the other had become: curious, playful, empathetic, and grounded. We discovered a shared love for the outdoors, spicy food, and being a touch competitive...at everything, and quickly became inseparable. Today, we share a cozy life with our sweet dog, Raz, and two goofy cats, Edie and Frankie. We spend our days hiking, biking, fishing, and camping whenever we can. Briana’s learning the art of golf (with lots of patience), and Patrick’s become an impressive yoga student in return. We're so excited to continue this journey, supporting each other through life’s ups and downs, with laughter, love, and a healthy supply of snacks for the trail (because one of us is prone to hanger). We couldn't be happier to commit our futures to one another.
