For friends, family and guests who might only know one of us so far...
We met in 2010. After having lived in the same
city, at times in the same neighborhood, for more than a decade, our paths crossed while Chris was finishing at UPenn. We spent the following year getting to know one another and then Sarah went
to grad school. Living between Northampton and Philadelphia, Sarah spent the next 2.5 years studying at Smith College. Upon Sarah's return home and after some long distance relationship recovery, we began our next chapter in winter of 2014. Shortly thereafter, a series of curveballs came our way: a cancer diagnosis for Sarah, surgery, recovery and a summer of trying to convince our cats to get along for the first time.
Sarah bounced back, we got back to work and in January, on the way home from another round of clear scans at the National Institutes of Health, we got engaged on a snowy walk in the woods.
Sarah Elizabeth Pulver
Sarah is a psychotherapist and works both in the community and in private practice. She grew up in South Jersey with her family. She has, at times been
a student, a barista, a dj, a bike rider, a dancer, a reader, a jogger, a slow eater, a writer, a helper and
a friend.
Chris Lawrence
Chris grew up in upstate New York and moved to Philadelphia in 2000, along with most of his bandmates, with whom he spent the late 90's traveling back and forth across the country playing music and making
punk rock records. These days Chris is an artist and designer and works on all types of projects... everything from making sculptures, installations and furniture to designing graphics, exhibitions and websites.
