We first met back in 2018, when Naomi was a freshman at UW-Eau Claire and Tyler was a high school senior visiting campus. It was one of those classic college welcome nights, and we just chatted a bit during tours and games. Fast forward to the next year: Tyler ended up choosing Eau Claire for college. Our first real date was a fun, simple one—just the two of us wandering around Target, getting to know each other and enjoying those easy conversations. From there, we kept bumping into each other at cross-country meets and team gatherings, and the rest just fell into place. And here we are!
