Colleen and Tim Sneak Peek

Colleen is 24-year-old professional cook. Upon graduating from the University of Nevada, Reno in 2008 with a BA in journalism, she decided to attend the Italian Culinary Academy in New York City. She studied Italian cuisine for three months in New York before moving to Parma, Italy to finish culinary school, then to Umbria to complete a stage at La Bastiglia restaurant. She now works at Roxy Bistro in Reno. Colleen loves spending time at Lake Tahoe and San Francisco and has a passion for Italian wines and food.

Tim is a 27-year-old student at the University of Nevada, Reno. He will graduate in 2010 with a dual degree in Psychology and English Literature and will pursue a graduate degree in Behavior Analysis. He is also a research assistant in the Behavior Analysis and Clinical Psychology departments at UNR, and works with autistic children in the UNR Early Childhood Autism Program. In his ever-elusive free time, Tim enjoys running, reading and spending as much time as possible at Lake Tahoe.

Colleen tells how she and Tim first met. "We actually met in 2003 as teenagers working a summer job at Rancho San Rafael. Tim kissed me at our end-of-the-summer work party at the drive-in movie theater and we've been together ever since! Last October he took me back to Rancho on a picnic and that's where he proposed."

Colleen and Tim will be married at Edgewood Country Club in South Lake Tahoe.
