How did your love story begin?

We met on Hinge in 2020, just as I was about to delete the app and move back to Chicago. One last check, and there was Nayza. After our first date, I asked to see her again the very next day. She said yes, and we’ve been inseparable ever since, spending every weekend together in sunny California, building a love that felt like fate. I did a girlfriend proposal, and just six months later, I asked her to marry me. When you know, you know.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

Our favorite memory is bringing Jaxon home after he was born in 2023. Darrell took 1.5 months off work, and those early weeks were filled with love, growth, and quiet joy. Spending uninterrupted time together as new parents learning, laughing, and bonding with Jaxon and each other was the most special and beautiful chapter of our love story so far.

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20,000, we’d take a meaningful step toward purchasing our forever home a place filled with love, laughter, and memories. More than just a house, it would be a legacy we hope to one day pass down to our son, Jaxon. A place where he’ll always feel safe, rooted, and loved.
