In the fall of 2018, we were the only two Marist law school hopefuls in the atrium of Vassar's student center anxiously awaiting the start of the LSAT. Moxi spotted Jacob immediately - you couldn't miss him in his signature all red Marist Lacrosse sweat suit! We performed the obligatory "oh you go to Marist too?" nod just as we were called in to begin the test.

We both ended up achieving a "good enough" score on the LSAT to get into law school. As fate would have it, we each chose to join Hofstra Law School's Class of 2022.

Fast forward to the first day of classes at Hofstra, we were placed in the same academic section, meaning that all of our first year classes would be taken together. Moxi, knowing no one yet, marched right up to Jacob and initiated a conversation, pretending that we had been old college pals. Jacob happily played along even though the reality was that we only just knew of each other. In the next few weeks we ended up dropping the ruse however, as we had quickly become genuine best friends.

We made it through the majority of law school as besties until realizing our 3L year that we fell in love somewhere along the way. Absolutely no one was shocked when we started dating.

We graduated together, studied for the bar together, took the bar together (in the same room might we add) and learned that we had both passed together. Basically, from the moment we started dating, we have been inseparable and it has been such a joy to share these milestone moments with each other.

Jacob proposed on 03.16.2024. He agonized over the location for months since Moxi hates anything public or over-the-top. The Baker House in East Hampton ended up being his choice - and in true Jacob fashion, the proposal was executed flawlessly. He surprised Moxi by inviting her parents out from Pennsylvania to join us and his parents for dinner after. Everything about this day was just perfect and spending the rest of the weekend in East Hampton was the cherry on top.

We are so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you. Lets get married!
