❤Happy Valentines❤! In celebration of this holiday of love, we give you one more Hinckley Intern love story! 🥁🥁🥁 Here is the story former #hinckleyintern Brandon shared: "Tiffany and I met through the Hinckley Institute Internship Program in late 2011. She was interning at the Department of Justice while I was at Department of State. We quickly discovered we enjoyed attending the same festivals, museums, and music events and we both loved food. We spent a lot of time together when we weren't working. Despite asking Tiffany out multiple times while in D.C., we weren't "official" until after our internships when she realized she missed me and she asked me out.  I obviously said "yes." We were married in August 2012 and moved back to D.C. where she and I studied conflict management at American University and Johns Hopkins SAIS, respectively. We have been working for the State Department ever since.  We've worked in Russia, Afghanistan, China, India, Slovakia, Armenia, Pakistan, and Djibouti while visiting other countries on the side. We've loved the opportunity to explore the world and work together. We returned to D.C. last August and have been working together to remodel our first house.  Neither of us expected to find our future spouses during our internships, but we're sure glad we did! . Thank you to Brandon and Tiffany! . #HinckleyInstitute #Valentines #UniversityofUtah
