We met by purely by coincidence at the School of Visual Arts during our graduate studies. Being in separate programs, it was highly unlikely that our paths would cross. Heidi had enrolled in a class being offered in Tim's department based on a recommendation by her instructor. After a semester of wondering who the mysterious interloper was in his class, Tim happened to spot Heidi hanging out with friends at a nearby bar. Tim introduced himself, and a few days we had our first date.
