Back in college at Walsh University in 2019, Andrew and Madi's paths crossed thanks to mutual friends. After initially meeting, every Tuesday and Thursday morning, they'd bump into each other on their way to Timken Hall for 8am class. But then COVID hit in 2020, and everything went sideways. They got sent home without exchanging contact information.
A couple weeks later, Andrew reached out to Madi's friend Megan for intel. With a little help, he got back in touch with Madi, and from there, it was like picking up right where they left off.
Next thing you know, Andrew's making the trek down to Waterford, wondering if he's about to meet his maker when Madi's dad takes him for a spin in the side-by-side. Somehow, he survives, and a few weeks later, Madi's up in Cleveland meeting the Ferguson crew.
May 16th, 2020, marks the official start of their relationship, and from then on, it's a whirlwind of road trips and visits. Even when they're miles apart, they're closer than ever.
Fast forward through graduations, job changes, and adding a fluffy addition, Weller, into their lives, they're off to Dayton for Madi's PA school.
Memorial Day weekend, 2024, Andrew planned a trip to Hocking Hills. While at a winery, on May 25th, 2024, Andrew pops the question. Madi says yes, of course! Now, with love and a goofy pup, they are so excited to spend the rest of their lives together!
