Natalie and Angela have known each other since birth. The story goes that Natalie tried to push Angela out into the world before she was ready, and being twins, she didn't really have an option but to go forth. Angela had one blissful minute in the world before Natalie joined her, and they've been two sides of the same coin ever since. Natalie could not be more thrilled than to be her sister's maid of honor, and truthfully wouldn't have it any other way.

Taylor and Angela met freshman year of college. Both were randomly assigned to live on the 1st floor of San Miguel Hall at UC Santa Barbara. Their shared passion of science and conservation led them to have many classes together and friendship bloomed. Even though they now live across the country from each other they are as close as always supporting and caring for each other.

Jordan and Angela met in 2019 when both were interning at Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge and were fast friends. Both never thought they would be living in Indiana past 2019 and probably wouldn't see each other often. Somehow their independent paths found them both with permanent addresses each less than 20 miles from where their friendship began.

Angela and Elizabeth found each other on Facebook. Each was looking for a place to live their senior year at UC Santa Barbara and neither seemed "too weird" to live with. Little did they know a great friendship was starting. While the year was cut short due to the pandemic you'd never guess they only knew each other for two quarters before venturing off.
