It all started with a Xavier basketball game.

We worked for the same company, but in separate divisions—passing each other in the halls for over two years without ever meeting. Then one day, as fate (and a company merger) would have it, our paths finally crossed.

After a few months of getting to know each other, we snuck away for a Xavier game… and the secret was out when we were spotted on TV by our coworkers! From that moment on, they cheered us on in more ways than one.

Over the years, we’ve become best friends, sharing countless laughs and a mutual love for the water. Life with each other is an adventure—one we feel incredibly grateful to take on together, surrounded by the love and support of our family and friends.

Now we’re living the dream: marrying each other and sailing off (literally!) into our next chapter.
