Our story began in the spring of 2017 at the W.A. Franke College of Business over a cup of coffee. We instantly clicked and absolutely adored each other, but neither of us had the time to make the relationship work. Eric finished his degree in marketing and moved back to Phoenix. Tarren finished her accounting degree and MBA, then moved back to Portland. In March of 2022, our paths crossed again after Tarren moved back to Phoenix and reached out to Eric to get breakfast. We have been inseparable since. We first confessed our love to one another on a backpacking trip through West Fork, Sedona in May of 2022. Our love has only continued to grow since that day. Our love for each other, our love for our families, and our love of adventure and the outdoors will undoubtedly continue to grow and thrive as we navigate through life together.
