Connect How did your love story begin?

We met on Tinder and a week later met in person on South Beach. We clicked instantly, and at the end of the night, Nico serenaded me to Careless Whisper as we drove side by side down the MacArthur Causeway. A year later, we moved in together. Four years after that first date, we got engaged and married. Now, we’ve just welcomed our baby two months ago—and every time I hear that song, I’m reminded of the night everything began.

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

Our favorite memory is our first trip to Universal Studios Orlando. We explored both parks—Islands of Adventure and Universal—and felt like kids again, laughing, riding everything, and soaking in the magic. It was our first real adventure together, and it made us fall even more in love. Now we go all the time, but that first trip will always be special—the start of a tradition, and a reminder of how much fun we have just being together.

What would you do with $20,000?

If we had $20,000, we’d use it as a down payment on a home—a place to grow our family, raise our son, and build lasting memories. It wouldn’t just be a house; it would be the beginning of our forever. A space that’s ours, filled with love, laughter, and room for future children. It’s not just an investment in property—it’s an investment in our dreams and the life we’re creating together.
