Ethan has lived all over the US and is originally from Kittaning, PA. Gracie is from Brookhaven, MS and recently moved to Durham, NC.

We met in August of 2023 when Ethan was living in Oxford, MS for his job and Gracie was finishing up her undergraduate degree at Ole Miss. After just a couple dates, we were inseparable! We began dating and Ethan moved to Butte, MT in February of 2024, so we did long distance for several months. Gracie began her MDiv degree at Duke Divinity in August of 2024, and in November, Ethan moved to North Carolina as well. This is when he popped the question! We decided to host our wedding at the Duke University Chapel in the state where we both currently live.
