We have been together for over 7.5 years. Even thousands of miles apart we are each other’s sunshine every day.
Help us share our love story in Variety, take home $20,000, and go on a triple date with Jeff & Emilie Goldblum and Charlie Day & Mary Elizabeth Ellis!
We met during high school play rehearsal. While going over scripts, I wanted Ethan’s attention so I ripped up my script and threw it at him until he played rock paper scissors with me. He is a rule follower so he did not appreciate this. Eventually, after a lot of texting and awkward conversations, Ethan and I decided to date because “everyone else thinks we’re dating, why not?”
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Every memory together is special. In retrospect, I enjoyed our 12 mile backpacking trip with 40 lb military ruck sacks that I was completely unprepared for. We had to take a break 0.5 miles in… and shared a tiny military tent. There was a lightning and thunder storm all night and I felt scared but safe in Ethan’s arms. The trip was a good reminder that we can get through anything, man made and nature problems alike.
What would you do with $20,000?We would use part of it to pay for a wedding and part towards a down payment on a house! We are already saving for both.
