Akshay and Shreya were both involved in the Chicago student ministry, Design Movement, but there paths never crossed. In November of 2022, Shreya was taking her final apologetics class at Moody Bible Institute where she was giving a presentation. She invited some Design folks to attend, but the only one who showed up was Akshay, whom she had never met before. Akshay and Shreya hit it off and talked for several hours that day (Shreya even skipped her next class to keep the conversation going!) Before long, they were studying together, making chai, and going on dates. They decided to make it official in the new year, 2023. And the rest is history :)
