Our Story
We have known each other for eight years. We started dating in our junior year of high school. We met in our physics class and looking back, we both claim we had a crush on one another, but we barely said a word to each other the entire time we were lab partners! It wasn’t until we had a get together with some mutual friends that we started talking. And once we started talking, it didn’t take us long to realize that we had an immediate connection.
We dated for the rest of high school and continued to date even as we went to separate colleges. It was difficult to be “long-distance” (we were only an hour and a half apart), but we would visit each other on alternating weekends and it was a fun opportunity to check out each other’s campuses. We enjoyed each other’s company, shared similar interests, and loved trying new things. We knew we wanted to be together and waited patiently for the day when we could finally get married.
And so, we got engaged in 2020, a year before graduating, and were married in June of 2021. Now, we have been married for three years and our relationship has continued to grow as we’ve walked through new phases of life together: graduating high school and college, buying a house, getting two goofy cats—and now we’re excited to see what this newest chapter has in store for us as we prepare to become parents!
Sophie grew up doing a lot of baking with her mom. Since she was little, they have always baked a huge array of Christmas cookies together in December, and it's a tradition that they have kept up to this day. After all the baking, we enjoy driving around to our friends, families, and neighbors to share the sweet treats with them. We are looking forward to making new Christmas and baking memories with our future child!
