Stephanie and Gabriel

Stephanie and I met while playing competitive soccer for the Winter Haven K.I.C.KS. league about seventeen years ago. She played incredible defense, and was a key player on the team. We have have had an incredible amount of memories together that I will cherish forever. Some of these memories can be remembered with short phrases that tell a story like (tall bony-an, fence, four wheeler, tree) Those are just some examples to tell the least..From fifth grade until now, we are still the best of friends and making more memories to come.

Stephanie and I officially met because we were both lost looking for our C++ class at UF in 2012. We ended up having almost all of our classes together since we were both Statistics majors. We became best friends because we are both crazy about completely different things; Steph is an adrenaline junkie and I’m a ridiculous person. About Me: I’m Colombian, I love Steph, tiny, I love Steph, extra, I love Steph, loyal, I love Steph, a hype woman, I love Steph, and a challenger (in that order). Also, I love Steph.

It all started with her iconically misplacing her dorm key... Stephanie Elizabeth Jane Browne-Espinoza and I met on a swampy summer day back in 2012 as incoming sophomores at the University of Florida. We were moving into our premiered location dorms, when she rambunctiously approached me seeking to get access back onto the floor she was moving onto. Fate ultimately led us to being suite mates at Springs dormitory, and surprisingly enough even through sharing a bathroom an everlasting friendship. Through the experience of sharing personal space for a year, Steph definitely became my go to shoulder to cry on and favorite person to get into wild antics with or get me into wild antics. I absolutely have some of my best college memories with her as my wingman! About Me: Pre-COVID you could catch me in a corner drunkingly making out with your son. Let’s see what memories this weekend full of love will bring ❤️

Steph and I met in the charming woods of Training Area 16 in Quantico, Virgina. While navigation has never been her strong suit, she eventually found her way down to Pensacola, Florida where we became roommates and great friends. Dragging Steph through flight school one event at a time has taught me many things about her, most especially her inability to keep track of her keys and her love of tequila. While I prefer beer to chasing shots with some salt and a lime, at least she is not an avid Patriots fan. Or Cowboys fan. Otherwise she would catch these hands. Go Birds.

Back in 2011, UF created a MySpace-like platform for students living on campus. We both commented under a post for flag football, and then we became roommates for 5 years, and friends for about 9 until this date. Two truths and lie: Currently, I work as a pediatric ICU nurse for a local hospital in St. Petersburg, FL, I’m a dog mom to a cute chihuahua mix, and I’m a professional scuba diver.

Hey, I'm Anthony AKA Sweaty Twan, Gabe's cousin. In reality he's like the brother I never had. Whether its karaoke at Brady's or hanging out at the house, we always manage to have a great time. It's never a dull moment with us and the rest of the wolf pack.
