We were good as individuals but now we are spectacular together. We have influenced each other’s growth in ways we couldn’t have imagined.
We would like to thank you for supporting Karonn and Tyria 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.
Our story began online ( Hinge). We communicated for a few months and decided to meet in person. Was it love at first sight ( lol, no)? After a long drive from Tennessee, we talked for hours. We both discovered how much we enjoyed talking, and from there, an actual friendship developed. We became a couple on July 22, 2023, and have been inseparable ever since.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?We have so many , but the biggest one is our first road trip to Chicago. I made the suggestion to visit Chicago for a one day trip. We didn’t have a clear plan, just rented a car and hit the road. We visited Karonn’s family , found a cute Italian restaurant for dinner watch the Michigan game and I showed Karonn around the Chi a little. We learned even more about it each other and how proud / happy our deceased parents would be that we found each other.
What would you do with $20,000?If we win the money, we plan to put it towards our dream home as we plan to wed in September 2026.
