When people ask Andy how he met Caroline, this is the response he loves to give — usually provoking an amusing reaction and setting the stage for a good retelling of their story.

Caroline and Andy met on Hinge in October of 2020 during very strange and uncertain times. Andy was living in Los Angeles, but on a month-to-month visit back to Austin, weathering the early Covid-Era from an Air Bnb in Hyde Park. Both native Austinites who grew up ten minutes away from each other, Caroline and Andy matched on Hinge, texted a bit and then had a first date to play tennis together (a shared passion) at Caswell Tennis Center, which led to dinner and drinks on the patio at Hopfields afterwards.

After months of dating, Andy decided to move back to Austin (without telling his boss) and the rest is history. Caroline later shared with Andy that he was right on the cusp of her Hinge distance filter, so it was a fateful and lucky choice of being in the right place at the right time.

Over the nearly five years since then, the couple has shared countless more tennis matches, a move halfway across the country to Denver, many more destination beach trips, time with family and friends, fun and love.
