Jarbi and Raz met when they were both prepping for their first bodybuilding show (much muscle!) and quickly became tied at the hip. The two would spend many hours at the gym followed by inhaling donuts at the nearest Dunkin Donuts. They also bonded by having deep conversations about life, religion, and relationships. Jarbi is now a software engineer, anime fan, and likes taking his sweet time accepting your Venmo requests (~ 2 years+).

"Chele"

Raz and Christian became close friends after Jose introduced the two during their Junior year of HS. After graduation, they became pen-pals while Christian was in boot camp, as their only way of communication was through letters carried by pigeons. Currently stationed in Alaska, Christian serves in the US Air Force as a Supply Chain Lead for Enjoyable Assets, i.e. passing out candy to our troops. In his free time, Christian enjoys fishing and has recently become an "IPA" guy.

Madi's older brother, John, must be excited to welcome another another engineer to the family, especially one that's much better than his sister. John and Raz often bond over roasting Madi for always finding a way to show up to events late. With an exceptional memory and quick wit, John can often be found naming capitals of countries no one has even heard of and practicing his Jeopardy skills.

Aru and Raz originally met during their co-op at WestRock, where they helped run a million year old cardboard manufacturing facility.

They have traveled to many US cities together and both enjoy trying local breweries and attending comedy shows. In addition to pursuing his Masters in ChemE at Columbia, Aru can also be found watching the Virginia Tech Football team go entire seasons without winning any games. Go Hokies!

"Bry" or "Beta"

Raz and Bry became close friends after forming a study group together and later becoming college roommates. Bryan played accidental matchmaker when he introduced the soon to be newlyweds, Madi and Raz! Bryan and Raz bonded over organic chemistry, coffee, and shared many late nights in the library powered by Trader Joe's chocolate covered espresso beans. In his free time, Bryan can be found asking what only he might label as "thought provoking questions", often starting with "but have you considered.. ?". No, Bryan, we have not considered.

"Leb"

Raz and Leb met during the formation of what today can only be described as "The Best Chemical Engineering Group in the US", according to US News. Raz and Leb deeply bonded over their cuteness and similarities in height, both sitting at roughly 6’2. Throughout the caffeine and nicotine powered all-nighters at Newman Library, Caleb would often be the teacher of the group and explain difficult concepts to Raz. They have many memories together, both in and outside the library, often involving Caleb peer pressuring Raz to stay out past his bedtime.

"Tone" or "Noodle"

Raz and Tony also met during the formation of the best ever ChemE group. The two share a common bond of health, supplements, and fitness. Tony's ultimate passion for fitness has led him to throwing out his gym membership to buy an expensive resistance band setup at home that he uses twice a year to maintain his physique. Seems to be working great ;). Tony's passion resides in wherever the music is, often found playing EDM sets at parties in Charleston under the name of DJ B0ne, for reasons untold.
