How We Met
Jake and Steph met in the summer of 2015 while taking a summer physics course at Muhlenberg College. Jake was between his freshman and sophomore year and Steph was between her sophomore and junior year. By chance, they were paired up as lab partners, and of course got a 100% on the assignment.
