Connect How did your love story begin?

We met on Radiate looking to attend raves together as friends, but after 2 weeks of being inseparable, we made it official. Our energy, chemistry, similar personalities and hobbies made it easy for us to bond in a short time. Both of us were hopeless romantics that were never appreciated, so we intertwined perfectly together. In all our years of dating, we never believed in that “when you know, you know” feeling. We’ve been together 9 months, moved in to our first place, and share 3 pets now!

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

In May 2025, we attended our first Indy Snakepit rave. Victoria’s favorite artist Illenium was playing and she was emotional. When a specific song played, Steven couldn’t help but release some tears with her. The song was “All that really matters” and the lyrics we cried to were “Find something you can hold on to, find someone who'll be there for you, cause that's all that really matters in the end”. It was a beautiful, special moment where we held each other and realized we were meant to be!

What would you do with $20,000?

I (Victoria) would use the money to pay off his student loans because I know how much it has been affecting his mental health having to deal with it on his own. I would keep all of this a secret and surprise him if we won. Steven deserves the world and I want to give it to him, he chose to love me when I was mentally at my lowest, and I want to reciprocate in a way I know would change his life because he changed mine. He is the most hardworking man, and he deserves to be rewarded!
