-- About US --
Most people, including our close friends and family, thought we met at UC Berkeley. The story actually started in the mountains of Taiwan - where we taught English for a summer back in high school. We met, talked a little and played an epic game of ping pong, but it was not love at first sight.
Five years later, after becoming close friends at Berkeley through Tzu Ching and the Bioengineering Honor Society, Aaron finally asked Michelle out (on a post-it! - learn about the story at the wedding). They are adventurers and love traveling the world - they have enjoyed the beautiful sunset from Piazzale Michelangelo in Florence, Italy; they've gone surfing off the coast of Mal Pais, a small surfer town in Costa Rica; they have been dog sledding at the ICEHOTEL in Sweden; and they have experienced the incredible sunrise of Cappadocia, Turkey from a hot-air balloon. When they aren't out conquering new experiences, they commute to work together and enjoy the simple things in life (cooking, lazy Sundays, making faces at each other, etc.)
