Brandon and I first met when he came to Madison buy side by side parts. He stopped by my house, and since I couldn’t drive yet, my mom took us to Raising Cane’s to grab supper. What started as a simple visit quickly turned into something special.

A couple of months later, on December 21, 2020, we officially started dating. In the beginning, Brandon would drive to my house every few weeks just to see me and when I started driving I did the same. We did this for a couple of years until we both eventually made our way to Mississippi State University, where our relationship continued to grow.

On December 20, 2025, Brandon asked me to marry him. We had planned to celebrate our anniversary with a trip to an animal safari followed by dinner, but little did I know, there was a much bigger surprise in store. With the help of our family and friends, Brandon pulled off the perfect surprise proposal—one we will never forget.

We are so excited to start this next chapter together and can’t wait to celebrate with all of our favorite people!
