Our story started back in 7th grade when TerryLee transferred from The Catholic Academy of the Holy Family to Eisenhower Middle School. In science class, TerryLee sat directly in front of me due to alphabetical order assigned seating and the rest was history. It began with playful flirting such as passing notes, pulling hair, and text messages. Due to my shy demeanor, I refrained from awkwardly asking TerryLee to be my girlfriend until January 12th of 2015.

We dated all through high school and through our first year of college. However, the distance of college drew us apart and we broke up in the fall of 2019. We both ventured on our own journey through life discovering what it was like to live without one another. While this time was necessary in our own personal development, we soon found ourselves texting back and forth in the spring of 2020. We found life to be better together, and I again asked her to be my girlfriend on June 14th. We adjusted our relationship to be centered around God and his will for our lives rather than our simple love for one another.

On May 5th, 2023, I proposed to TerryLee in front of her family, and she gave an emphatic YES! We are most certainly looking forward to celebrating our marriage with you all on 08/24/2024.
