Abby

Abby is my lovely wife. We got married on November 9th, 2014. We met in Boston in 2011 and started dating in April of that year. If you'll believe it, we were engaged by July of that year. I love her to pieces, and in fact I write her a "daily love letter" every night.

We go on trips together (many trips to Reno since 2018, Sweden, Quebec, Switzerland, Hong Kong), play video games (Fallout 4 forever, recently Arc Raiders), see movies, walk down Valencia Street, go to company picnics and holiday parties. She is my best friend as well as my one true love.

She is a costume designer, thrift store stalker, and poker player. She is smart and talented and funny. I'd show you a picture but she'd probably get embarassed.
