As a couple, J and A’s story began at Whitefish Bay Middle School. From there, life took them to different colleges, different states, and countless new experiences before ultimately bringing them back to the community where it all started.

When J and A began dating in middle school, they never imagined where life would lead them. Over the years, they earned two undergraduate degrees and two graduate degrees, built their careers through multiple jobs, called several apartments home, got married, and welcomed two children. Through every milestone, one thing became increasingly clear: their hearts were pulling them back home.

Wanting to be closer to family, lifelong friends, and the community that shaped them, returning to Whitefish Bay felt like the natural next chapter. So when they found a home that checked all the right boxes, they didn’t hesitate to call Cathy and Gretchen. They moved quickly, secured an accepted offer, and began creating new memories in the place where their story first began.
