It all started at St. Ambrose University in Davenport, Iowa. Brian and Grace met in New Student Seminar freshman year, where Grace often overheard Brian's sarcastic commentary. Grace was often found tagging along with the cross country and track team for dinner at the cafeteria to get more time with Brian.

Grace and Brian's friendship grew over time and they traveled to Utah with a group of friends from Ambrose during the summer going into their senior year.

Finally, Grace and Brian started dating at the start of 2nd semester of senior year.

Brian proposed to Grace on July 8th, 2023 at Buckingham Fountain and they celebrated with ribs at Twin Anchors.
