Nick and Tara met at a local doctor's office back in Englewood, FL while they were both working in prep for nursing and medical school in 2018. The two quickly hit it off and started dating. Nick went to medical school in Gainesville, FL at UF and Tara stayed back home to complete nursing school. After two years of long distance, Tara moved up to Gainesville to be with Nick as he completed his last two years of medical school and to start her career as a Registered Nurse.

Fast forward to 2023, two cats and 1 dog later, Nick matched into residency in Tampa, FL and Tara was accepted to NP school at USF. The two bought their first home and are so excited to be back closer to family. April 13, 2023, Nick popped the question at the top of Yonah Mountain in Northern GA surrounded by their family. This spot is so special to Nick and Tara, it was the first hike they went on together during their first vacation as a couple. You can even see the mountain in the background of the venue!
