Our story started about a year before our first date, when a mutual friend from Temple University brought us under the same roof during a summer happy hour in Philly.

Fast forward a few months and Hiya moved to LA, Mike was living in Philly and we never thought we'd cross paths much again.

With some luck, a global pandemic and the spirit of Zoom game nights, we started a friendship for the next 8 months that would eventually lead to Hiya flying across the country for our first date in October of 2020 and as they say, the rest is history.

Mike moved out to LA in April of 2022, and we began building a life full of beach days, tacos, and hikes with Tito.

We planned a two week getaway in May of 2023 and Mike proposed in Fanal Forest in Madeira, Portugal on May 24th, 2023.

We're ready to have our biggest adventure yet, celebrating with our friends and family as we get married in California.
