Connect How did your love story begin?

We met through one of his coworkers and started making music together. What began as a creative partnership quickly turned into a genuine friendship, and before long, we felt like family. We fell in love naturally and officially started dating after he surprised me with an out-of-state trip for my birthday. A few years later, we said “I do” in Costa Rica, and we’ve been building our life together ever since.

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

Our favorite memory was our trip to Costa Rica. We accidentally got on the wrong bus and ended up on a 5½-hour ride to a town we never planned to visit. Instead of stressing, we embraced it. We spent nights in unexpected places, waited on quiet roads trying to catch rides where there were barely any cars, and laughed through every detour. It reminded us that no matter where we end up, we’re happiest when we’re together. The best parts of the trip were the ones we never planned.

What would you do with $20,000?

We’d use the $20,000 to invest in the future we’re building together. A portion would go toward growing our music careers and the businesses we’ve created as a team, allowing us to reach more people and create at a higher level. The rest would help us purchase our first home, giving us the stability to put down roots, grow our family, and continue building a life we’re proud of together.
