Thirteen years is a long time to grow up beside someone. Especially when you meet at 19 with absolutely no clue what life is going to ask of you.
I think going through his cancer diagnosis so young changed the way I look at time more than I understood back then. It made building a life you actually want feel a lot less like something to keep putting off.
Years later, when I went back to school for design, he was there. When Brandelle became official he believed in it before I knew what it could become. And now, as I work toward making this business my full time life again, he’s still the person in my corner reminding me why I should keep going after it.
Happy 13 years to my favorite person and Brandelle’s completely unofficial silent partner. 😂🧡
