In February of 2022, Maley was finishing up her last semester in her Masters program at Emporia State University in Psychology and Adam was in his 2nd year as an HVAC technician at Lower Heating and Air. Both swiped right on a dating app to match and met up for lunch the day after Valentine's Day at Jose Peppers. During the first date, the couple found it incredibly easy to talk to each other and discovered they had a lot in common, from sharing the same high school, church, and interests. Following a time of courtship by Adam, he finally proposed in September of 2023 and now here we all are, ready to celebrate the rest of their lives.
