Alexis was living in Kalamazoo working as a cardiac nurse in the middle of COVID. Scott was in his 4th year of pharmacy school and living in Grand Rapids. They both were on dating apps searching for that special someone, we specifically met on Hinge. In August of 2020, Alexis swiped right on Scott and were instantly matched :) They started talking and met for their first date on September 10, 2020. They agreed to meet in Kalamazoo at University Roadhouse, Alexis noticed Scott pulled up in a Blue Kia Soul, she thought immediately "Great this guys drives the gerbil car." In the long run, that didn't matter. They immediately hit it off that day and scheduled the next date for the following week. Scott made Alexis lamb, potatoes, and veggies. Alexis, of course, brought the wine :) They enjoyed dinner together and eventually he kissed her. The rest is history.
