We are young and in love. Both from different countries (him UK, me USA), we met at art school and match each other perfectly.
We would like to thank you for supporting Alix and Connor in this year's competition. Your participation allows us to aid both the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank and Oceana in their respective missions to support hunger relief and ocean conservation.
We met on tinder the day before I moved into my freshmen year dorm at SCAD, his sophomore year. We went on our first date to a coffee shop two weeks later. Connor had gotten a concussion in a soccer game (he was the schools goalkeeper and captain) so we had to wait for him to get better to go on the date. I like to joke that he only swiped right because he was concussed. We made it official about a month after that first date and have both just graduated with our bachelors from SCAD!
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?We have traveled a lot since we are both from different countries but my favorite memory is the first time I traveled to Northern Ireland to meet his family and friends. It was so special to see where he grew up and just how different the culture was.
What would you do with $20,000?We would use it to support my Visa to move to the UK. Now that we have graduated we have been doing long distance but want to both be in the UK.
