Catherine came to Texas A&M to pursue her Master's, while Ryan was working at the College Station Ice Rink and as a Programmer for a local tech company. They met when one of Catherine's graduate program peers brought her Ice Rink co-worker, Ryan, to hang out as a group at Northgate, the local college bar scene. The attraction was instant. They hung out many times after in a group, talking more and more. Ryan pretended to love trivia nights to hang out with Catherine. 4 years, 2 moves, and 1 dog later, they are engaged to be married! Ryan and Catherine still live and work in the Bryan-College Station area and are waiting to see what married life holds for them.
