It all started when Keith and Alex met while working at Dick's Sporting Goods in Newport, KY, in 2015. Keith was a Senior at the University of Cincinnati and Alex was a Junior at Northern Kentucky University.

The two became quick friends and would even get in trouble at work for talking too much.

On March 12, 2016, Keith asked Alex to officially become his girlfriend and they spent the special day together at the Red River Gorge. This was the start of their adventures together as a couple, traveling that year to Siesta Key with family and to Chicago with friends.

2017 was a year for many big steps: Keith started officially working for the Cincinnati Bengals; he and Alex moved into their first apartment in East Walnut Hills; they became the proud dog mom and dad to Atlas; and they traveled to San Juan, Puerto Rico for the first time together....this is when they both fell in love with the US Territory of Puerto Rico!

In 2018, Alex got her first reporting job in Zanesville, Ohio and slowly worked her way up over the years and is now a reporter in Dayton, Ohio.

Keith left the Bengals and took the big and exciting jump of becoming a full time personal trainer and nutritionist in early 2021, and has been loving it ever since.

He told his mom Regina that he wanted to marry Alex and with her approval, bought the engagement ring in February of 2021. He asked Alex's parents for their daughter's hand in marriage in March, much to their delight.

By some miracle, they all managed to keep it a secret!

Alex and Keith traveled to Puerto Rico with their friend's Boston & Alyssa, and Alex's parent's Terry & Missy.

On May 15, 2021, they all went to dinner at La Copa Llena at the Black Eagle on the beach where Alex said "Yes" to Keith!

When they get married, they'll have been together for almost 7 years.

7 years of ups and downs and a lot of love!

Here's to the start of many more years as husband and wife...
