We both grew up in Bucks County, PA., 15 minutes apart from one another; but, that's not how we met. We were both trying to figure out careers stifled by Covid, which took us both to NYC, specifically Citi Bank HQ, where Sammy was an Event Planner and Brian was an AV Technician. This is where the 12-hour event days bonded us, leading to shared coffees, then lunches, and then to going out of our way to commute together; all so we could spend more time with each other. What started as a friendship, based on the common, comforting, denominator of growing up north of Philadelphia (Go Birds!), quickly became the best thing that ever happened to us. We always joke that we probably passed one another at a local Wawa or restaurant growing up, not knowing that eventually, fate would have our strings cross in a different state, different city, and at work of all places. With so many clues that maybe we didn't see, it's just so pretty to think that all along there was some invisible string tying us together (thank you, T. Swift, for such powerful lyrics).
