Our story began in November of 2020 when we crossed paths in a seemingly unconventional way. It was through an application that most people never have much luck with, but somehow, we struck gold. What started as a casual conversation quickly turned into something much more meaningful and real. From that moment, we realized we shared a connection that felt both exciting and easy, like we had known each other forever.

In January of 2021, after months of talking and getting to know each other, we finally met in person for the first time. Erick made the long drive—3.5 hours—to see me, and we spent the day enjoying each other's company over sushi. That day marked the beginning of our journey as a couple, and it felt like everything we had shared online came to life in the most exciting and genuine way. From that moment on, we were inseparable, and our connection only deepened as we started dating.

For the next 3.5 years, we navigated the challenges of a long-distance relationship. Despite the miles between us, we made it work, proving that love knows no boundaries. We celebrated milestones, supported each other’s ambitions, and built a foundation that would withstand the distance. Finally, after Erick was offered a job as a maintenance analyst at Tenaris and I got into the Doctor of Physical Therapy program at Arkansas State University, we took the leap and moved to Arkansas together—ready to start the next chapter of our lives as a couple, no longer separated by miles but united by our shared dreams and love.
