Fresh from college, Shanta and Phillip started two weeks apart at the Google headquarters. While Shanta diligently put her head down in her first big corporate job, she kept getting distracting messages on GChat from a tie-dye t-shirt wearing kid from Berkeley that sat across from her desk. Latching onto a common appreciation for a TV show, he continued messaging her and fruitlessly cracking jokes in the break room until she finally gave way into conversation. With Shanta's best friend at work (and conveniently Phill's roommate) Tim Jordan, the group explored San Francisco and the bars, restaurants, and parks the city has to offer. After months of hanging out, Shanta finally came to the conclusion that Phillip was just not going away. After six years, two cities, and a year-long trip backpacking the world, Phillip and Shanta decided it's time to get hitched!
