Fun Fact: we met back in high school (go Mustangs)! Our mutual friend Grace decided to make it her mission to set us up- and so began those first awkward interactions after church group in which she would force us to sit next to each other and carpool.
Her plan worked, and we officially started dating sophomore year on May 13, 2016. We finished high school together, did long distance throughout undergraduate and graduate school, and ended up together back in Arizona! We decided to take a month long European trip to celebrate all our accomplishments, and on October 7, 2023 Tyler proposed on a private boat in Lake Como, Italy. We just celebrated 8 years and are so excited to be switching our anniversary next year from May 13th to May 31st!
