Our Story

We first crossed paths as classmates in an accounting class, when Joey sat down next to me. At first, I wasn’t too impressed—he never seemed to pay attention, yet somehow always managed to earn good grades. But then came a few conversations, small at first, and something began to change. Those simple exchanges turned into our first date, and our first date blossomed into a love that feels like it was meant to be. What began as chance seating in a classroom has led us here, ready to begin forever together.
