Meet Jonathan and Jessica from Arizona State University! Jonathan graduated with a degree in Design Management, and Jessica in Psychology and Child Development. It all started with a serendipitous seating arrangement at a football game!

KC: How did you meet? Where?

J & J: We met at a football game, in the student section. We went with different groups of people but ended up sitting next to each other. Started chatting about where we were from- we grew up a city apart.

KC: What significance does Arizona State University hold for you?

J & J: ASU holds a big significance to us. We follow all sports, stay up to date with what’s new and try to visit a few times a year to get new gear and catch a game.

KC: Do you think you would have ever met if it weren't for your school? Why or why not?

J & J: No, I don’t think our paths would have crossed if it wasn’t for ASU. Although our families lived a few cities apart we didn't hang out at any of the same places.

KC: What's your favorite thing to do together? Why?

J & J: Everything. We love making memories with our children, traveling to new places, house projects and catching sporting events.

KC: What advice would you give incoming first-years about meeting other people and relationships/friendships?

Don’t hold back! Be bold and enjoy the experience. Step out of your comfort zone and have fun!

Thanks so much to Jonathan and Jessica for sharing their Love Story! We can't wait to see your love and family continue to grow <3
