Our Relationship

We met in 2015, at a construction job we were both working on. We hit it off immediately, bonding over the frustrations of punch lists and Microsoft Technology. Our first date consisted of Mario Kart, movies and a lot of laughing. Hailie asked Thomas to marry her in August of 2018 and the rest will be history!
