Nick and Talya met in 2012 at Boston University at a tea and conversation club hosted by mutual friends. Months later, Nick asked Talya "Would you be interested in working on an animation project with me?" She replied, "Sure! It's what I want to do for the rest of my life."

Neither of them really knew what they were doing, but it was the first step in a lifelong journey towards following their passions, hand in hand, heart to heart.
