Ronita and Ryan met in college in 2011. They had multiple classes together—they now both work in finance—and one day, Ronita chose to sit next to Ryan during an accounting class. The pair hit it off and began dating in the fall of 2012. They discovered that they had much more in common than a shared career path; Ryan and Ronita both love wine, exotic cuisines, traveling, and music (including John Mayer and The Beach Boys)
