We started dating in October of 2021, in Arcata, California while working for American Airlines out of the Humboldt County Regional Airport. Our good friend Brittney Willson can take credit for that - we love you Brittney! We had a whirlwind of a year together in Humboldt filled with family, friends, travel and lots of time at the beach.

In spring of 2022 we learned that American Airlines was going to be leaving the Humboldt airport and we made the decision to move together to Eugene, Oregon! Eli accepted a transfer within American and Bailey started a job with Pure Infusion Suites as a Patient Access Coordinator. In November of 2022, Eli left the airport and began working for the ARC of Lane County as a Community Inclusion Peer Support specialist where he assisted adults with developmental disabilities in being active members of the community. Our little apartment in Eugene was directly across from the University of Oregon campus. We loved walking around campus, exploring the Saturday market, and eating lots of Thai food!

In February of 2024 we made the decision to move back to Eli’s hometown of Etna, California to be closer to both sides of our family and settle down for our future! Bailey accepted a job as an executive assistant with Cal Forest Nurseries, the largest reforestation nursery in the Pacific Northwest. Eli works various positions throughout our community, including professional window washing with our friend Isaac Roman and has recently started a new role as an Environmental Technician with the Quartz Valley Indian Reservation. We are thrilled to be back in Scott Valley surrounded by our beautiful community of family and friends.

We know that there are amazing times ahead and are looking forward to sharing many more memories with you all! Thank you for being a part of our story!
