Our story began in 2019 with a simple swipe on Hinge, a chance connection that would come to define our lives in the most beautiful way! Sam had just moved from Georgia to Colorado to pursue her Master's in Speech-Language Pathology when she met Michael, a first-year medical student. They quickly bonded over their studies but found they had a shared love over sports, though Michael quickly learned that with Sam, college football is no joking matter.

Their 4 years together have been action-packed with plenty of travel across the United States, from Hiawassee, Georgia to Tacoma, Washington! They've had one graduate school graduation with another on the way. Throughout this time they've had numerous dates and lots of laughs. Together, they've embarked on an incredible journey, creating memories and building a life that's uniquely theirs.
