Thank you for taking a moment to learn about us. We are a loving couple from Ohio who have dreamed of becoming parents for many years. After walking through infertility, we realized that our path to growing our family was meant to look different than we once imagined. We felt God gently calling us toward adoption and that calling filled us with a great sense of peace and hope.
What we desire most is to give a child a life filled with love, laughter, stability, and the freedom to grow into exactly who they are meant to be. We are grateful for the chance to share our hearts with you and honored that you’re taking the time to get to know us.
About Us
We have been together for 10 years. We met in college, and our love grew from there. We got married in March of 2020–3 months after our wedding, Collin deployed for 11 months. Modern technology and our faith in Jesus helped our love flourish during this trying time in our marriage. Once back from the deployment, we struggled with infertility. After a couple of years, we attempted fertility treatments with no success. After praying through next steps, we discovered we were called to this journey of adoption.
Together we enjoy many things:
When the baby arrives, we cannot wait to do all these fun things as a family and create new traditions together!
About Collin (Told by Morgan)
Collin does not quit. He’s incredibly hard-working and solves any problem with his job, family, and everything he believes in. What I love most about him is his sense of humor that makes everything lighter. Above all, Collin is deeply committed to his family.
Collin is a member of the Army National Guard working on Blackhawk helicopters and is also an aircraft mechanic working on Boeing 747-8 airplanes.
His hobbies include:
Collin looks forward to playing games and the many adventures we will have traveling with our child.
About Morgan (Told by Collin)
Morgan is a sweet and caring person who loves to laugh and play games. She works hard to keep the household clean and organized. She loves her family and pets. She always tries her best to make sure everyone is happy.
She currently works as an administrative assistant. She gets many compliments from her customers on how she takes care of them.
Her hobbies include:
Morgan looks forward to watching Disney movies as well as attending sports or extracurricular activities that our child will participate in.
Our Family
Collin is the middle of three brothers, and many of his favorite childhood memories come from playing outside with his brothers and the neighborhood kids. His older brother is married with a beautiful daughter, and they live in a suburb of Chicago. His younger brother is also married and lives in a nearby Ohio city. Collin’s parents live close by and are energetic, loving, and always eager to help. Family time is important to us, and we love getting together for game nights or trying new restaurants with Collin’s parents whenever we can.
Morgan has one younger brother, and many of her childhood memories revolve around traveling with her family to watch him play travel baseball. Her brother and his wife live on a farm about an hour away. Morgan’s dad lives close by and is a steady, supportive presence in our lives—he even comes to cheer her on at her weekly bowling league. Morgan’s mom lives in West Virginia, where she helps care for Morgan’s grandmother, but she visits often. We love going to Cincinnati Reds baseball games and University of Dayton basketball games with Morgan’s dad, and we look forward to monthly dinners with Morgan’s mom when she is in town.
We feel incredibly blessed to have so much family nearby—people who are ready to play with, support, and love our future child. Our entire family is eagerly waiting to welcome a new little one, and they are just as excited as we are for this next chapter.
Our Home in Ohio
We live in a two‑story home in a quiet, family‑friendly neighborhood. Our house has four bedrooms, giving us plenty of space to grow. One bedroom currently serves as a home office, and another is being lovingly prepared as a nursery—something we’re incredibly excited about. Our property sits on just under half an acre, with a fully fenced backyard that offers a safe, open space for play, exploration, and time outdoors.
Our home wouldn’t be complete without our German Shepherd, Liberty, who is three years old and full of love. She is gentle, kid‑friendly, and happiest when she’s joining us on walks through the neighborhood or relaxing in the backyard. She’s loyal, playful, and incredibly sweet—truly a big part of our family. We know she will be a wonderful companion and protector for a little one.
Our neighborhood is peaceful and walkable, with sidewalks throughout that make daily strolls with our dog one of our favorite routines. We look forward to sharing those simple moments with a child in the future. We are close to parks, schools, shopping, and restaurants, giving us easy access to both nature and community activities. It’s the kind of place where families look out for one another and children have room to thrive.
Our Promises
We are open to continuing contact with you and the opportunity to meet up in person at some level if you would like. We feel so blessed about the possibility to be on this journey with you.
We’d love to talk or answer any of your questions. Please call or text Lifetime at 1.800.923.6784.

-Traveling, Camping, and the Outdoors--We love getting away together, whether it’s camping in the spring and summer, relaxing on a beach in Florida, taking a cruise, or exploring somewhere new.
-Games and Family Fun--Board games and card games are a favorite in our house. We look forward to family game nights and sharing lots of laughs with our extended family.

We’re excited to share the things we love with our future child, and even more excited to see what sparks joy for him/her as they grow!
Our Faith
We are active members of our church, and our faith is an important part of our lives. Church, worship music, and prayer help guide us through everyday moments as well as big decisions—like our journey to adoption. We hope to raise our child with these same values, surrounded by a community that encourages kindness, compassion, and a strong sense of belonging.

We strive to make our home a place where everyone feels loved, supported, and safe.
We make time for each other—meals together, little traditions, and simple moments that matter.
We work through challenges with patience and forgiveness, always choosing connection over conflict.
-Character
We believe in being honest, humble, and respectful.
We show up, work hard, and take responsibility for our choices.
We want to model kindness and integrity in the everyday moments.
-Faith
Our faith is part of our daily rhythm.
We stay connected to our church community and the encouragement it brings, and make attendance a top priority throughout the week.
We try to live out our faith through love, compassion, and gratitude.
-Health and Well‑Being
We take care of our bodies and minds through exercise, rest, and healthy routines.
We value self‑care and emotional awareness, trying to create a peaceful, supportive environment.
We believe that when we feel our best, we can give our best to those around us.
We cannot wait to instill these values in our child!
When I was younger I wanted to be...
Collin -- a rock star!
Morgan -- When I was really young, I wanted to be a trash truck driver, and then later on a kindergarten teacher.
