Our Story
How We Met
We met several times throughout our time at Meadville Area Senior High, but our friendship really began in our Junior year. We both attended the Commercial Art Program at the Votech, and also partnered together in our shared Chemistry class. (Yes, this should have been a sign.) We continued as friends for the rest of Highschool, after which we both independently decided to attend the Cleveland Institute of Art for college. Once there, our romance bloomed, and has continued ever since.
The Proposal
We were in California to attend the CTN Animation Convention, and had just enjoyed the last day of the event. We'd returned to our hotel room after dinner, and were just relaxing together. Our conversation had wandered and eventually turned into one of our playful 'Who loves who more' arguments. The moment felt right, and I pulled the ring from its hiding place and asked her to keep having that argument with me forever. After a minute of disbelief, she remembered to actually give me an answer, which was yes!
