About Me:

How We Met:

We met in a bar! Hard to believe, I know. We met in December 2007. I was in Washington DC for a job interview and while grabbing a celebratory drink with my sister, we bumped into Poinsettia Dude and his group of friends, who happen to be DC locals. After two months of texts and emails, we decided to go on a real date. The rest is history!

The Engagement Story:

We got engaged over the 4th of July holiday while spending the week at Bethany Beach. Just us two under the stars with beach hair and bronzed tans and a few sweet words. Perfection!
