Dylan and I first met in August of 2021 while we were both students at Tennessee Tech University. I was a sophomore from Georgia on a basketball scholarship, and he was a junior from Tennessee. One night, some friends invited me and a few teammates to a house party—not knowing it at the time, it was actually Dylan’s house, and he was the one throwing the party! We met that night, exchanged numbers, and officially started dating a couple of months later in October :)

We spent the next two years together at Tennessee Tech until Dylan graduated and I transferred to play basketball at the University of North Georgia. For the past two years, we’ve done long-distance between Tennessee and Georgia while I finished out my college basketball career.

On April 19th, after my final season was over, Dylan asked me to meet him in Chattanooga—our special halfway point where we’ve shared many dates over the years. That’s where he got down on one knee and proposed, and to top it all off, he had planned a surprise celebration with both of our families in Chattanooga to share the moment with us!
