We met as teenagers at Miami Northwestern High School in the Spring of 2009. Tiara spotted Fred in the cafeteria and immediately liked what she saw. With the help of a school mate and Fred's best friend Orlando, phone numbers were exchanged, and our love story began. Well, not exactly. Fred left for a different high school, and later we both went off to college, yet our connection kept finding its way back through every season that followed. We have had the privilege of experiencing life’s many paths, lessons, and even its pains over the years. From Florida to North Carolina, through new jobs, evolving careers, and even a new home, we are grateful that our bond has continued to grow alongside us. On October 22, 2025, while vacating with friends in Turks and Caicos, Fred proposed, and Tiara, astonished and overjoyed, said YES. Please join us, as we write the next chapter in our love story.
