Bruce and I both grew up on our family farms in Suffield, Connecticut. Our lives were intertwined from the very beginning. We shared the same friends, classes and even rode the same school bus everyday. While I had no idea, Bruce had secretly been crushing on me throughout middle school and high school.

After graduating high school, in 2016, life took us in different directions. Bruce joined the Navy and I went off to college.

Years later, in 2023, we reconnected with a little help from Bruce's friend, Matt. We quickly fell in love and formed a long distance relationship. Bruce living in Florida and me in Washington.

Shortly after, we moved in together in Panama City Beach, Florida. Since then we've loved traveling, scuba diving, and cooking together, cherishing every moment we get to spend together. While traveling in Iceland, on September 10, 2025, Bruce proposed on Diamond Beach! Now we're excited to embark on our greatest adventure yet - marriage!
