We first met in August of 2022 at the beginning of the fall semester at Slippery Rock University. Kathryn was beginning her senior year and Spencer was starting off his college career as a second semester freshman. A mutual friend invited Spencer over to Kathryn's apartment, which she shared with 3 other girls but not much conspired after that first interaction. Two weeks later, after a Cru weekly meeting on September 8th, Kathryn approached Spencer and peppered him with questions about who he was and where he was from. Intrigued by the fact he had learned very little about who she was, Spencer began looking for the next opportunity to ask Kathryn about herself. Three days later, during a conversation after a Cru prayer meeting, he found out she worked at the library as a peer academic coach, which required her to meet one-on-one with students weekly. Several library "coaching" sessions later, Spencer made the move, and on October 23rd, 2022, we adventured out on our first date, and the rest is history.
