Hi everyone, I’m Hannah, and I live in San Diego with my husband Greg and our cat, Sid. We’re originally from Milwaukee, but we moved to San Diego in July of 2011. I can’t imagine returning to the snow and gloom ever again!

I have a B.S. in Biological Sciences, and I’m studying to become an MLT. I have a million interests when it comes to science, so I’m having fun exploring my options and getting some hands-on experience before I apply to graduate school. Greg is working on his Ph.D. in Computer Music at UC-San Diego.

Greg and I met in January of 2006 at UW-Milwaukee, where we both did our undergraduate work. We had a Computer Science class together, and we’d hang out and talk in the hall before every class. It was the best class of my undergraduate career, though I don’t remember anything about the material. It wasn’t love at first sight, by the end of the semester, I thought my computer science buddy was really something special.

Shortly after the semester ended, I left for Florida on a family vacation. During the trip, Greg and I talked every day, mostly through Facebook messages (I still have all of these messages, and they are so fun to re-read). Before my trip was over, we had made arrangements to meet up at the Milwaukee Art Museum when I returned. I don’t remember exactly how it happened, but I think Greg decided that we should just go ahead and call it a date. I was absolutely astounded that he liked me back (I’m still astounded. I was 17 and a huge dork).

Our first date went well. We decided to have another. Our first kiss took occurred on June 10, 2006. We tied the knot exactly 4 years later on June 10, 2010.

He’s my best friend, and I love him more every day.

Food facts:

• I love cooking, baking and eating.
• Thai and Indian food are my food soul mates.
• I’ve been a vegetarian since I was about 12.
• I’m not vegan, though most of the food I eat is.
• I try to convince myself that I love vegetables more than I do. My heart belongs to fruit.
• I’m addicted to raisins.
