My boyfriend Brad and I met three years ago while working at a now Cisco acquisition. He's a software developer and I'm a project manager. While we worked on the same project at the time, it wasn't until we both ran the company sponsored Ragnar Relay from Huntington Beach to San Diego that we started dating. It was such an amazing experience and even though we're no longer on the same project, I still get to see my best friend at friend at work everyday. I was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer in 2016 and Brad has been my biggest supporter, always encouraging me to live everyday and keep moving forward. We love Cisco's Time to Give and will be volunteering with an organization called Hope Corps for a week in Costa Rica this December after having to postpone last year's trip due to cancer treatment. Cisco was incredibly supportive of my situation and I was able to work through chemo and radiation. #lovewhereyouwork
