We’re a great couple because we met at just 18 years old and have moved to another city and graduated school together for our future.
We would like to thank you for supporting Brayden and Mari 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.
It was the beginning of COVID, I (Mari) had just graduated high school and Brayden was heading into his Junior year of high school. It was the summertime so the two of us met at a mutual friends house for a small get together. It wasn’t until a month later that the two of us began texting back and forth and decided to go on our first date, and we’ve been together ever since June 28, 2020 :)
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?I would probably say my favorite memory we have shared as a couple was in 2022. Brayden was in a car accident that broke his leg in a couple different areas, and once he was healed a little and able to exist comfortable we went to Universal Studios together. I pushed him in a wheelchair around the park and we were able to get on our favorite rides thanks to the amazing staff there. It was the best trip we’ve ever been on, as it was nice to enjoy one another’s company during the storm.
What would you do with $20,000?With $20,000 Brayden and I would get an apartment or townhouse for the both of us. We currently live with my family as we have for a few years now but we would love to branch out and start our journey independently. And maybe even get our very own fur baby as we’ve been dreaming of since we met!
