Born June 15, 2000, Dan grew up in the small town of Vale, OR raising goats and playing tennis.

Jacey, born April 14, 2000, grew up in the equally small town of Kersey, CO raising pheasants and running track.

Although they were states away, they both ended up at the University of Wyoming.

Dan studied mechanical engineering and energy systems engineering in college, earning a degree in both! He also was a dedicated member to Tau Beta Pi engineering honor society, a player on the UW Club Tennis Team, and a decorated student for the University.

Jacey studied marketing and professional sales at Wyoming earning a concurrent degree in both majors and a minor in communications. While at school she was a part of the university track team and a member in the Alpha Kappa Psi business fraternity.

Through the encouragement of mutual friends, Jacey and Dan played on an intramural volleyball team together their sophomore year. While playing around after a match following the end of a semi-successful season, Dan accidently hit a ball into Jacey's face, starting their relationship (and possible concussion).

Dan officially asked Jacey to be his girlfriend on February 18, 2020 (happy birthday James)! Through COVID, college, and life, the couple was inseparable. Side by side they shared achievements, painful classes, graduations, and eventual job offers, taking them to Broomfield, CO together!

Shortly after moving to a new place and adjusting to new jobs, Dan popped the question to Jacey July 15th, 2023 on their apartment balcony!

They are excitedly building their lives together and cannot wait to celebrate their special day with you!
