We met on a visit to Calvary University in March 2023. With a little "Hi, I'm Max," and "Hi, I'm Mary," nothing happened. Then the next year, "You're Mary, right?" "You're Max, right?"

In June of 2024, we started texting back in forth. Max then attended Calvary. We began dating in September of 2024.

Max proposed in September of 2025, and soon after, is our wedding!
