We’re each other’s calm and chaos—perfectly balanced, wildly supportive, and unstoppable together in every adventure life throws at us.
We would like to thank you for supporting The Wardens 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.
We met in college, serving tables to pay rent—I was 19, he was 21. Our bond grew over busy shifts and late-night laughs, but when he was promoted to manager, I had to choose: stay or risk it all for love. I quit, hoping it was worth it. It was. Our story began in the chaos of everyday life, built on sacrifice, laughter, and a leap of faith that turned into something real and lasting.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Our favorite memory as a couple is the birth of our daughter. In that moment, everything changed. We saw a new kind of love in each other’s eyes—one that was stronger, deeper, and forever. Hearing her first cry, holding her tiny hand, and realizing we created this beautiful life together is a memory we’ll always cherish. It was the beginning of a new chapter, and the most unforgettable day of our lives.
What would you do with $20,000?If we won the $20,000 prize, we’d invest it into a custodial Roth IRA for our daughter. Starting early would give her a strong financial foundation and decades of tax-free growth. Whether she uses it for retirement, a first home, or future needs, this gift would set her up with long-term security and financial freedom. It’s our way of planting seeds now so she can have a brighter, more stable future ahead.
