We grew up in the same small town and fell in love during high school. We graduated from Columbus and decided to pursue a career path in health care. After much uncertainty, we both found each other deciding to attend the nursing program at Carroll College. Payton received an offer to play college basketball and I had the opportunity to join the Reserve Officer Training Corps. Throughout our first three years of college, our shared passion for the outdoors grew and we frequently found ourselves bonding over the countless hours of fishing and hunting. Little did I know that I had already tagged the best trophy and caught the best fish in the sea! We can't wait to spend the rest of our lives together creating endless memories and we are very excited to see what God has in store for our future together!
