Chris and Devon met at the Graduate College at Princeton University in the spring of 2006. Chris was a first-year graduate student in neuroscience and psychology, and Devon worked in the marketing department of the McCarter Theatre Center.
After a festive April BBQ at 15A Millstone Chris asked Devon to "take pictures of her brain" for his fMRI study. Instead, he took her out to sushi at Ajihei and the rest is history.
