How did your love story begin?

Jay and I first met while attending a CPR class. Jay strategically chose to be in my group HOPING he could give CPR to the dummy after me. BUT our “official” meeting was two years later. We were in the same cohort for our Masters Degrees. It didn’t take long before he got a true kiss from me and we fell MADLY in love!

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

My favorite memory was the first time we went to a clothing optional couples resort in Jamaica! It was Jay’s 40th birthday wish - and with a little encouragement and research, we celebrated Jay’s 40th birthday in our “Birthday Suits”. It was a life changing adventure for sure!!!

What would you do with $20,000?

Jay turns 50 in November, I’d love to take him back to that Couples Resort or any all inclusive and ring in his new decade in suits or not. LOL!
