Our Story

Jacob has been one of Leah’s closest friends since high school, and over the years, has become more like family. It is not uncommon for the two to get together for weeknight frozen yogurt or an impromptu Target run. But no matter what they are doing together, you can count on plenty of jokes and belly laughs to go around.

Justin and Josh go way back to their Fresno Christian days. The two stayed friends through high school and even went to California Baptist University together where they were roommates. Justin is a big fan of Lost, so make sure to mention that if you talk to him!

Leah and Allie have the coolest story of how they met. Technically, their first time meeting was in the Amsterdam International Airport en route to Kenya where they served on a medical mission together. They shared a room for two weeks and have remained friends since! Allie lives in Washington so Leah enjoys making trips up there to visit.

Josh met Sheldon in college at CBU. They became fast friends with a similar sense of humor and determination to become doctors. Now, Sheldon is an anesthesia resident in Southern California and regularly fields all of Josh’s med school questions, usually while playing video games together.

Amber and Leah have been friends since they were 9 years old. Over time, their friendship spread to their brothers becoming besties and even their parents loving to hang out together! Amber and Leah both became nurses and always have a stash of funny stories to exchange. Fun fact: Being that Leah and Amber’s birthdays are only 5 days apart, they make an annual trip to the Bay every summer to see the Giants play at Oracle Park! It’s been a tradition for years!

Amber Simonson

Chris is another lifelong friend of Josh’s whose relationship began in Kindergarten at Fresno Christian. After college, both returned to Fresno and became roommates until Chris moved back to the Santa Barbara area. Strengths include: can make a mean cocktail, bakes bread from scratch, always has a joke on hand. Definitely the kind of friend you want to keep close!

Leah and Madison are stepsisters and met just before their 10th birthdays. They are less than two months apart in age and developed a deep bond when they realized they were going to be stuck with each other for a while!

Madison Cavalli

Not to be confused with Jay-Z, this Sean Carter is Josh’s older brother! Sean currently lives in Colorado and is Josh’s ultimate skiing buddy. Josh and Sean are experts on the slopes and hope to one day go heli-skiing!
