Meet Wayne

Hi, I’m Wayne. The first thing you should know about me is that I’ve always dreamed of becoming a dad, and I’m incredibly excited to be adopting. I grew up in a close, loving family as the youngest of three siblings, and my two older sisters are still my best friends to this day. That strong family foundation taught me the importance of connection and loyalty—values that continue to guide me through life.

In addition to family, I value friendship deeply. My core group of friends and I have been close since elementary school, and over the years, we’ve become more like brothers than friends. They’ve shown me the meaning of chosen family and the importance of always showing up for one another.

I’m a lifelong sports fan, especially when it comes to football. Whether I’m watching, playing, or studying the game, sports have always been a big part of my life. I love how they bring people together and create shared experiences across generations. I also enjoy spending time outdoors, whether that means hiking in the mountains or relaxing at the beach.

I can’t wait to continue family traditions, make new memories, and discover new things to love alongside our future child.

Meet Theresa

Hi there! I’m Theresa—a lifelong dancer, passionate traveler, and someone who has always been deeply rooted in family. I was fortunate to grow up surrounded by the love of my parents, grandparents, and even great-grandparents, and that strong foundation has shaped who I am in so many ways. Family, creativity, and meaningful connection are at the center of everything I do, and I’m looking forward to sharing that love with our future child.

Dance has been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I’m grateful that it has given me my livelihood. It’s also brought some of the most amazing people into my life. Many shared experiences—on jobs or just navigating the ups and downs of the entertainment industry—have turned friends into family.

While my work allows me to travel the world and experience new places and cultures, no matter where I go, home is always where my heart is. I love finding the best coffee shops in every new city so I can bring Wayne home new beans to try!

When I’m not dancing or traveling, I love cooking, painting, and spending time with our fur baby, Mae. She brings so much joy and comfort into our lives and I know she’s ready to be the best big sister!
