We're getting married!!

Even after growing up 5 minutes apart, Joel and I did not cross paths until senior year of high school. We quickly became good friends, bonding over how much we actually enjoyed calculus and sat together in class all year. Unfortunately, Joel decided to go to CSU and I headed to the Harvard of Colorado, CU Boulder. Fast forward 6 years, and the timing was finally right. We matched on a dating app and Joel wasted no time asking me out on a date. Allegedly, he had a crush on me all along and was not going to miss this opportunity! Out fate was sealed after a great first date at Dio Mio in Denver that ended in Joel's car being towed, which he was a great sport about despite the fact it cost almost $500.
