Misha and I met on the intern in Israel program, Career Israel, in 2009, and we had an immediate connection. We very quickly realized we wanted to be together.
After finishing Career Israel in 2010 we returned to Minneapolis and Cincinnati, our respective hometowns, to figure out our next steps and, hopefully, find jobs (#greatrecession).
Our “long-distance” phase lasted until August 2011, when I moved to Minneapolis for graduate school, a job and, of course, Misha. We’ve been living in Minneapolis together ever since, and got married surrounded with our friends and loved ones in Cincinnati in August 2014 – 5 years (almost to do the day) after we first met.
