Emmy went to a dance practice for the African Student Organization fully aware that he couldn’t dance, but hopeful that there would be girls there – and there were. Kenna was a member of the dance team and ended up in the same stretching area as Emmy. That was the start of their friendship, but it wasn’t until months later at the Black Excellence Pageant that Emmy made his first move. They started dating, and the couple credits Texas State’s Every Nation Campus Ministry for keeping their relationship strong. They are now married, living in Washington, D.C., and expecting their first child.
