I met Dorsa on June 15, 2024, in Orange County. She was late, I was underdressed, and somehow that ended up being the perfect start to our story. We took a chance on each other, and it has been the best decision I could have made.

Early on, I may have advertised myself as someone who “loves to travel,” but I truly had no idea what was ahead. Since being with Dorsa, we have traveled to five countries across three continents, and we are just getting started. She has opened the world in front of me in ways I never expected—through travel, through love, and through the way she sees life.

Over the past two years, we have grown together in so many ways. We have blended cultures, adjusted to each other’s lifestyles, and always tried to put one another first. Dorsa has introduced me to incredible new foods, experiences, and traditions. Her family and friends have also embraced me with so much love and support, and I am deeply thankful for that.

On September 22, 2025, on the beautiful Greek island of Milos, our story reached one of its most meaningful milestones when we got engaged. It was a moment I will never forget, and one that perfectly reflected the life we have been building together—full of adventure, love, and gratitude.

In December 2025, we bought a house together and started building a home. We are also hoping to welcome a puppy soon. We feel so grateful and blessed to have the love of our family and friends, and we are excited to celebrate our wedding with the people who mean the most to us.
