Our story began in 2020 when we were both part of the Year Up program. We were in the same cohort and knew of each other, but at the time our paths didn’t go any further than that. Looking back now, it’s clear that God was writing our story long before we realized it. Five years later, our cohort planned a boat day to reconnect. What seemed like a simple reunion turned into something so much more. That day we truly connected for the first time, and everything fell into place so naturally that it was impossible to ignore. It felt like God’s perfect timing, bringing us together exactly when we were meant to find each other. We both know now that this wasn’t just chance it was part of a bigger plan, and the beginning of forever together.
