His Story

A little bit more mundane than my counterpart.  I was born and raised in Columbus, GA.  I spent my first eighteen years in the same house.  After graduating from Columbus High School in 1999 I finally flew the coop to start anew in Statesboro, GA.  I graduated from Georgia Southern University  in 2003.  I moved to Knoxville, TN that year to attend the graduate school at The University of Tennessee.  I graduated in 2005 with a Masters Degree in Public Administration.   Except for a brief detour in Nashville, I have lived here in Knoxville ever since.

I currently work for the U.S. Department of Labor in Downtown Knoxville - I too, really like what I am doing.

I have had great experiences with my friends in my journeys so far.   I am glad to be in East TN, and I am looking forward to this exciting adventure we are about to start.

 

Our Story

Russell and I met while we were both working at Enterprise Rent-A-Car in Knoxville, TN.    Russell and I became great friends, while dealing with all the day to day headaches caused by that little green "e".   I left Enterprise in November of 2007.  Russell managed to tolerate it another 10 months.   We remained friends after I left, and I guess not being around each other for 8 hours a day, made our hearts grow fonder :)

 

We started dating, Russell proposed, and now here we are!
