How We Met
We were first introduced by our mutual friend Bumble (a dating app) in 2020. Our first date was on 9.20.2020 and in case you decided to forget, 2020 was a unique year. It was a bit tricky to have a courtship during the period of face masks, socially distanced out door seating, and closed down everything. During this awkward time of life we learned the important aspects of dating, like how to text a crush while simultaneously watching an entire Netflix series. After spending 6 feet apart for several months we got vaccinated and were then allowed to became an official couple. On 4.17.2021 at Golden Gardens in Seattle we both took off our masks and realized both our faces were perfectly fine and that we totally belonged together. Since then we've basically been the areas "it couple" and on the cover of various magazines.
