It all began in the fall of 2015. Both Kevin and Claire moved into Broward Hall at the University of Florida (Go Gators!). By chance, they ended up on the same floor. Though they met that fall, it wasn’t until the spring that they truly clicked—when Kevin, out of the blue, sat down with Claire to help her pick out a dress for formal.

From that moment on, they became inseparable. They were at every one of Kevin's frat parties together, he tackled her chemistry homework, and they spent nearly all their time side by side. When summer came around, Claire went home, but they kept in touch non-stop. She even visited her freshman roommate (shoutout to Jordana!) over the Fourth of July, where she and Kevin got into more adventures together.

Then came fall of 2016, where they experienced much more. They went to EDC together, Claire met his parents, and attended all of the Florida football games together. Everyone knew they were basically dating, but Kevin waited to make it official until January 3, 2017.

Throughout college and all of the years since, they remained inseparable and even joined eachother on many family trips. They survived long distance through Kevin's time in medical school, and moved down to Miami Lakes in the summer of 2023. Everyone knew an engagement was inevitable, but he kept everyone on his toes until he popped the question on May 4, 2024.
