We met in high school in 2021, just after I moved to Greenwood. Dawson asked me out, and while our time together then was short, God brought us back together in 2024—this time inseparable from the start.

I proposed to Raygen while we were on a family vacation in the Florida Keys. Although I had planned to propose during a professional photo shoot, the rain changed those plans, and I ended up proposing on the balcony of the beach house. It wasn’t what I had imagined, but it turned out to be perfect.
