Tim and I are highschool sweethearts! We met during our junior year of high school and quickly fell in love; spending hours on the phone during long commutes, hanging out on weekends, and staying connected through countless FaceTime calls. We grew together through some of life’s biggest moments, from navigating the pandemic and missing milestones like prom, to graduating high school and college, and both beginning our careers in cardiac research and in cardiac nursing at Johns Hopkins. On November 22, 2025, our six-year anniversary, Tim completely surprised me with a thoughtful scavenger hunt, with each stop led by a friend holding a handwritten clue. After dinner, the final stop led to his proposal on the dock at the Annapolis Maritime Museum, a spot we spent a lot of time at while we were in our early stages of dating just chatting at night and watching the stars, making it a day we’ll never forget. (see the bottom image to see what I’m talking about!!) We feel so lucky to have such supportive family and friends, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you!
