Kara and Steve’s epic love story began in the most thrilling of environments: the Department of Correction in 2016. While most people think of this place as all about rules and regulations, Kara and Steve discovered it was also the perfect spot for sparking a romance. Kara, from Worcester, was a project manager with a knack for organizing chaos, while Steve, from Somerville, was an accountant who could calculate love at first sight with alarming precision.

When they’re not globe-trotting to Portugal, Spain, Italy, Ireland and more, they’re fiercely competing in candlepin bowling. Steve, proudly wielding the "Golden Boot" award for highest average in the league, takes his bowling seriously—so seriously that he’s considering adding “professional bowler” to his resume. Kara, his biggest fan, cheers him on with a blend of admiration and mild skepticism about the legality of those strikes.

The couple also loves beach time, particularly in Maine, where they enjoy relaxing and pretending they’re not plotting their next adventure. With Steve’s accounting skills and Kara’s project management prowess, their life together is an expertly balanced equation of fun, laughter, and travel.

So here’s to Kara and Steve: proof that you can meet your match in a place as unassuming as an office, explore the world together, and still find time to win awards and enjoy sandy beaches. Cheers to a life filled with love, laughter, and maybe a few more countries on the list!
