Tommy and Emma met in 2018 through a youth ambassador program. At the time, Tommy lived in Central Utah, and Emma lived in Mapleton—about 2.5 hours apart. Tommy would occasionally visit, and they would go on dates, starting a connection that would grow over time.

When Tommy started attending Southern Utah University, they stayed in touch and remained friends throughout his mission and Emma’s early college years. Their paths crossed again when they were both accepted to Brigham Young University in the same semester. When Tommy moved to Provo, they shared their second first date—five years after the first.

Their friendship evolved into something more, and soon after, they began dating. In November of 2024, Tommy proposed, marking a new chapter in their journey together.
