Our journey together began in 2020 when we first met in scrub tech school. Little did we know then that carpooling to our shared clinical site would be the start of something truly special. We quickly became good friends.

For a couple of years, we remained friendly, keeping in touch here and there. Then, as fate would have it, we reconnected and began hanging out more often as friends. It wasn’t long before we realized there was something more between us. On February 12th, 2023, we officially started dating, and our lives have been full of love and adventure ever since.

After we started dating, things were moving fast, but we knew we were right for each other. Our first big adventure together was attending a national conference for surgical technologists in Chicago. It was our first vacation together, and it was nothing short of amazing. Shortly after, we took the next big step and moved in together, embracing the challenges and joys of life as travel surgical technologists. Around the same time, we launched our business, Reusa-Peel, a project we’re both incredibly passionate about.

Seeking new adventures, we decided to spend the summer in upstate New York, where we explored the East Coast, visited NYC for the first time together, and marveled at the beauty of Niagara Falls. But the most unforgettable moment came during a family trip to Cabo, where a perfect proposal with a perfect ring, hand-delivered to Mexico, made for the most amazing night of our lives.

Now, back in Utah, we continue to work as travel surgical technologists and are saving up to hopefully buy our first home together soon. Our story is still being written, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds.
