Taylor and Evan both grew up only an hour from each other in eastern North Carolina. Taylor moved to Currituck County when she was 7 and Evan was born and raised in Manteo. Growing up so close to each other, their paths often crossed without ever actually meeting (come to find out). After high school they both went off to college, where they again would both end up close to each other, this time in the same city, Raleigh. Taylor attended Meredith College and Evan attended NC State University, only a couple miles apart. Although at this point, they knew of each other and they were only miles apart, the opportunity to formally meet never occurred. A few years pass and they finally had the opportunity to meet and the rest is history!
