Yes that's a Taylor Swift lyric, but it is the simplest way to describe how Austin and I landed in each other's lives.

I began working in the PT field back in 2019 and maneuvered myself to PPP in the winter of 2021. Austin was working at Biggby at that time and managed to lock in an internship opportunity at PPP shortly afterward. After several months had gone by, simply existing in opposite sides of the clinic, we ended up participating in a Halloween event in Flushing where Austin scoffed at a child's costume for having the wrong type of light saber... This clearly sparked my interest as a fellow nerd so we chatted for a bit that night. A coworker witnessed us chittering and made it her mission to set us up (shout out to Jess!)

Without swapping majors in college, applying specifically for a front desk position exactly when I did back in 2019, and taking the leap to PPP in 2021, I would probably have never met Austin. If he didn't work at Biggby during the pandemic and meet Dr. Amber and her husband Eric, he wouldn't have found his love for coaching and planted roots at PPP either. It's as if a single thread of gold really did lead us to each other.

Q + A coming soon!
