Collin and Caroline first met in February of 2021. They both ran small food businesses out of a shared production kitchen in Baltimore and were introduced serendipitously by another member. Shortly after their meeting, Collin began working late in the hopes of intersecting with Caroline who made her pizzas at night. He found any excuse to strike up a conversation.

They got to know each other while wearing face coverings, not in an Eyes Wide Shut-type scenario, but due to the kitchen's COVID-19 precautions. The first time Collin saw Caroline without a mask, he said to his friend privately that, "she's too hot for me." Caroline did not express the same concerns upon seeing Collin, but thankfully that's irrelevant at this point.

After the first few dates, Collin was taken by Caroline's easy and playful manner. No matter the topic of conversation, a mood of silliness always remained at-hand. The two moved in together after Caroline's lease expired in the fall of '21. They still happily share that same apartment, along with their adorable cat daughter, Bowie, in the Tuxedo Park neighborhood of north Baltimore City.

In May of '23 Collin proposed to Caroline at Cape Henlopen State Park, near the site of their first ever vacation together two years earlier. Wedding plans began taking shape shortly thereafter.

Nowadays, the two spend their time cooking many meals for Scratch Made customers, editing videos, going for walks and generally enjoying each other's time. Caroline has recently become a Core Power queen and Collin, a golf freak-a-leek. The two dream of soon buying a home where they'll spend their days in joyful marriage.
