Andrew and Sam attended Illinois State (Go Redbirds) and were both heavily involved in Greek Life at the university. They went to the same parties, hung around the same people but were too busy enjoying the college life to think anything of it. Post graduation Andrew & Sam both moved to Chicago where they found themselves still running into each other at random hangouts and various bars in the city. Sam then told one of her best friends that she called dibs on "Brooks" when he started coming around again. Andrew then asked Sam out on a Valentine's Day date to Summer House Santa Monica. 6 months later they signed their first of many leases together in the city🤍
