We’re no BS but also we come with all the BS.

In the back room of a cosmetics store. I was working as a manager in a retail cosmetics store, when Michael came in as our security guard. I was in the office when I heard his voice, when I saw him it was as if time stood still. A few weeks later at our pride event I took his phone and added myself to his social media. After bonding over being number neighbors and Princess Consuela Banana Hammock, what was started as a “buddy” friendship became what we are today.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?We share so many memories, from losing my Ling Cod while deep sea fishing (still a sensitive subject) to falling while night fishing, our favorite memory is our NYC trip where we adventured through the city, did all the touristy things. Ending it with the best Sashimi at Rockefeller Center.
What would you do with $20,000?If selected we would use the $20,000 towards an IVF journey. After a devastating health scare that ended in a benign tumor, ovary and tube removal, it has made conception a tougher journey. The prize money would allow us to have a better chance of a miracle baby for not just me but to give the honor of being a dad for the first time for Michael.
