We met through mutual friends during our freshman year at Georgia College & State University in Milledgeville. We began dating in the summer of 2016, bonding over a shared love of helping others, the Grateful Dead, and taking care of Matthew's new puppy, McGee. Our relationship has seen 21st birthdays, college transfers, nursing school clinicals, graduations, a global pandemic, a move to a new state, and now, an engagement! We have grown so much as a couple, and we are so honored that you are going to spend the most important day of our lives with us.
