Kevin and Addie

Hi! We’re Kevin and Addie, and we’re thrilled to introduce ourselves and share our story with you.

Our journey together started when we met on the Hinge app in March 2019 and had our first date playing mini golf in Del Mar, California. Since then, we got married in 2021 and moved to a suburb outside Portland, OR with our four fur-babies in 2022. We instantly fell in love with our home, especially its spacious backyard with a large lawn and garden beds. Living next to a 20-mile trail, we can often be found taking our dog, Palmer, for long walks during the early evenings.

Addie grew up in Long Beach, CA with her parents and two younger siblings. Though our family now spans across California, Hawaii, and Australia, we stay incredibly close through weekly FaceTime calls and annual family vacations. Addie works as a Program Manager at a special education staffing company. In her downtime, she enjoys reading, cooking, baking, gardening, and cozying up for movie nights—especially with Disney classics.

Kevin was raised in Los Angeles, CA with his parents and two older siblings. While most of his family remains in the LA area, his brother now lives in Denver, Colorado. We cherish our time with our nieces, whom we visit frequently during trips to LA. Family is extremely important to Kevin and we try to all get together multiple times a year, including one big family camping trip for our niece’s birthday in San Diego. Kevin is a golf professional at a Country Club and passionate about teaching people the sport. He loves golfing, BBQ-ing, gaming, and staying active. As an avid sports fan (Lions and Dodgers), we are often attending or watching games.

We love traveling, exploring new areas/towns, going to farmers markets, concerts or other shows, or just finding other activities happening in our area. We can be found going out and finding new adventures, but are also perfectly happy staying at home and having movie marathons (especially Marvel and Harry Potter).

Our deepest hope is to nurture a loving and supportive relationship with our child, fostering an environment where they feel safe and encouraged to share their joys, fears, and dreams. We eagerly anticipate creating lasting memories, providing a nurturing home, and wholeheartedly supporting our child as they navigate life’s journey. Whether it’s dance recitals, baseball games, science camps, or music concerts—whatever brings them joy, we can’t wait to experience it alongside them. Additionally, we aspire to build a respectful and open relationship with our child’s birth parents and family, fostering trust, empathy, and understanding through open communication. Our aim is to create a supportive and inclusive family dynamic where our child feels cherished and loved.

Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. We’re excited about the possibility of growing our family and embarking on this journey together. ~ Kevin + Addie
