They first met in San Jose, CA in 1995 where they dated for a short time.  It wasn't their time at that point, and they remained distant friends even after Todd moved to the Washington D.C. area for a period 4 years.

Once Todd returned from the D.C. area in 2010, they decided to meet up and revisit their friendship.  Well, friendship lead to dating and they were soon on their way!  After dating for over a year, Todd and Claudette both realized that they were destined to be together.  Todd and Claudette traveled quite a few places during that time and were inseparable.

Todd proposed to Claudette in San Francisco on October 18, 2017.  During a scheduled summer trip to Costa Rica, they decided it was time and they got married!  It was August 8, 2018 when they became a happy married couple and became Todd and Claudette Hollinger!

They have been so happy and feel blessed to be spending their lives together... Forever!
