The Proposal:
Kristen's favorite band is the Dave Matthews Band and when we started dating our senior year, she told me it was her dream to see them live at The Gorge Amphitheatre in Washington. Following law school and the bar exam, I surprised Kristen with a trip to Seattle, Washington to see a Dave Matthews Band show at the Amphitheatre and I proposed to Kristen on the edge of the gorge at Cave B Winery next door to the Amphitheatre. That night, the Band also played our wedding song, "You and Me," at the concert. I attached a photo of us at Cave B Winery from this past August when we traveled back to Washington to revisit where we got engaged.
Where are you now?:
Kristen and I live in Macedonia, Ohio with our two beautiful children. Our son, Grady, is five years old and our daughter, Taylor, is two years old. I am an associate professor and teach in the DeVille School of Business at Walsh University and practice law part-time. Kristen is Managing Enforcement Counsel at ReliabilityFirst in Independence, Ohio
