This love story starts in Queens, NY (before it started trending downward thanks to current leadership).

I was at the gym trying to get a good workout in, amidst 3 burgeoning ventures, incessant Teams/Slack messages and the everyday vicissitudes of life. I looked up in between a set and saw the most beautiful-yet-unapproachable woman in the corner of the gym at the squat rack.

She was unlike anyone I had ever seen before; she was in the Military & an RN and an absolute stunner so I pursued her ... even after multiple attempts on her end to "curve" me.

Safe to say, we both hit the jackpot.
