Jess & Mike met each other in February 2020 right before the world shutdown. After many weeks of Mike trying to convince Jess to go on a date and her playing hard to get she texted Mike to meet up last minute within the hour for a drink (in classic Jess fashion). Mike scrambled home from work and the first date led to an instant connection and a handful of dates more until COVID-19 shut down the world. They both continued seeing each other and the rest was history.
