Our story began when we were just 5 and 7 years old, growing up side by side long before we ever imagined sharing a life together. Married in 1999, our journey hasn’t been without its memorable plot twists—including our preacher not showing up on our wedding day (a story for another time!). Today, we are blessed with two beautiful children and both serve our community working for the City of Chicago. As a couple, we love worshipping, traveling, and unwinding over movies. Above all, we operate as a true team. We understand that this marriage assignment is far too important to fail, so we work diligently every day to cultivate a happy, lasting union. Together, we are excited to keep building our legacy while uplifting and scaffolding others along the way.
