Donovan and Vivian met in August of 2020 during Resident Assistant training at their Alma Mater, Stony Brook University. With classes fully remote and not many people living within the residence halls, they quickly became close friends and spent all of their free time together. After Don graduated in 2021 with his Bachelor's Degree in Political Science and Economics, they were in a long-distance relationship from Long Island to Rochester for 2 years before Vivian graduated with her Bachelor's in Social Work in 2023. They then moved in together to an on-campus apartment at SUNY Oswego, provided through Vivian's employment, and where they've been together since. They now share their apartment with 3 cats, Venus, Maki, and Blu, and love spending their time with them or playing games online with their long-distance friends.
