We had the pleasure of meeting each other for the first time October of 2021 through our mutual friend, Lauryn Johnson. Funny enough, in our four years spent at Whitworth University we had never crossed paths even though we lived in the same dorms, had some mutual friends, and similar interests. When we met we clicked instantly and it did not take long before we decided we wanted to date each other! We believe how we met is a true testament to the beauty of God's timing as He was shaping each of us individually for one another. We met the families and spent time with each others friends, and learned how to mesh our lives together while in nursing school and the police academy. While developing our individual careers, we were able to go on special dates, travel together to new places, and strengthen our love as we learned all the little details about one another. We began talking about marriage end of 2022, and July 2023 we got engaged surrounded by family and friends! We are so excited to enter this next chapter and hopeful for what God will do in and through our marriage!
