It took Tyler five moves and one year in Japan to meet Emily. It took her four moves around the west coast to allow Tyler to be graced by her presence.

During their first date in Seattle, Emily was immediately captivated by Tyler's jovial demeanor and passion for his family and friends. The lip liner and leopard print satin button up attracted Tyler like a moth to a light.

Their year in Washington brought many new adventures. Some of the highlights include being foodies in the new city, trying out car camping for their first time, and hiking Mailbox Peak (which little did Tyler know would be on heck of a climb).

Tyler's job brought him down to beautiful sunny San Diego. Needing little to no convincing, Emily took a nursing contract in the city as well. On March 22, 2024, Tyler turned a walk on the beach into a proposal and the rest is history!

Q + A coming soon!
