Jessica started her career as a nurse in the new grad residency program at Children's Hospital Los Angeles with Devin's future sister-in-law, Melissa. Throughout their years working together they became close friends. When Melissa relocated to Arizona for her husband Chase to go to law school, Jessica would go to visit. During one trip, and after way too much champagne at a daytime polo match, Jessica casually mentioned that Chase's brother was cute. Chase immediately went into matchmaker mode. Jessica woke up from her afternoon nap with a massive headache and a green text message from Devin. Jessica decided to overlook the fact that Devin was an android user (he has been successfully converted to an iphone user) and they continued to get to know each other for the next month. Devin was living in Northern California, so they decided to both fly out to Arizona to see Chase and Melissa and hang out with each other. After that visit, Jessica planned her birthday celebration in SF, so that she could see Devin again. Shortly after starting to date, the pandemic struck leaving Jess and Dev flying back in forth on nearly empty planes to see each other during lockdown in 2020. They spent the next year spending time cooking, playing intense games of ticket-to-ride, and traveling when they could. Jessica was burnt out on bedside nursing and interested in furthering her career. She applied to USC Nurse Anesthesia Program and was accepted! Devin had new found flexibility in his work as they were remote due to COVID and utilized this freedom to move down to LA. Devin spent the next two years doing everything he could to make Jessica's life a little easier by cooking, giving unlimited back scratches, doing (almost) all the house chores, and listening to her long rants about her clinical days. While traveling to Oregon for job interviews, Devin planned a beautiful proposal at Cannon Beach. They went to a dinner together at a cute, intimate restaurant. Devin was nervous about timing and afraid he would miss out on a sunset proposal. Jessica was completely unaware of the panic going on in Devin's mind (mostly because she was suffering from GERD). Luckily after secretly tipping off the waiter to please hurry up, Dev and Jess were able to make it to the beach for sunset for a perfectly timed proposal.
