Erin and Paul met at The Ohio State University. They were placed into the same chemistry class. This class had about 300 people, but they happened to have the same lab. Bonding over the difficulty of the lab reports, they studied together and eventually began dating. Throughout their three years at Ohio State together, they went to football games with friends, had endless movie and game nights, and even got a puppy and kitten together. As time passed, their love and respect only grew for each other. In June of 2022, Paul asked Erin to marry him. They are beyond excited to get married and couldn't imagine navigating life with anyone else.
