Matthew and Mackenzie first crossed paths at The Republic Steak House in early February 2024. Just a few days later, on Valentine’s Day, they officially began their journey as a couple.

Matthew graduated from Texas A&M in December 2016, while Mackenzie followed suit with her own graduation in December 2023. Matthew proudly commissioned into the United States Navy, and Mackenzie embarked on her career as an Escrow Processor at Capital Title of Texas.

They both find community and joy at Christ Church, where they share their faith. As they look ahead, Matthew and Mackenzie are excited for the future and all the growth that awaits them together.
