We are Brett and Marissa from California

We love playing in adult recreational sports like kickball (how we met) and softball, participating in obstacle races like Spartan/Tough Mudder, and going to major sporting events like LAFC games. We love to stay active with Brett playing 2-3 weekly soccer games and Marissa going on daily walks and taking Pilates 2-3 times a week. Brett hopes to be able to coach your child’s soccer or baseball team one day, as well as eventually be able to play a bit together when they’re old enough. In our downtime, we love binge-watching our favorite shows together!

We love to travel and go to Maui every year to celebrate our love. We love Maui so much that we got married there, and now our trips to Hawai’i are part of our anniversary celebration. Brett is a die-hard Boston Red Sox (baseball) and Leicester City (English soccer) fan, and Marissa is passionate about crafting and dance. Growing up as a dancer, Marissa has always had a passion for the arts, music, and general creativity. Whatever your child’s interests and passions may be, we are excited to engage in it with them.

We promise your child will never know what it feels like to be truly lonely. We have wanted to raise a family together since the very beginning of our relationship, and we always hoped we would have the opportunity to be able to adopt. We will raise your child to really learn and appreciate their heritage and ancestry while we learn right alongside them. We will raise them to be proud of who they are and where they came from.  We promise to fill our home and your child’s heart with so much love, warmth, and support. We promise to keep our extended family units strong and communication consistent so your child can grow up with stable, healthy relationships. Most of all, we promise to love and provide for your child with everything in our hearts.
