Connor & Gigi met freshman year of college at Florida Gulf Coast University at a campus Christian ministry called RUF. They were on a camping trip with their RUF and Connor was playing a chess game for the first time. Gigi came up to him and although not having a clue how to play chess she decided to be his coach and tell him his next moves. After this camping trip, they spent every day together since. Connor and Gigi have been together for 2 years and still attend RUF.
