In fall of 2008, Julian Gompertz, CCAS BA ’10 and Ashley Huffman, CCAS BA ’12, first met in New Hall (now known as Amsterdam Hall)…but they didn’t begin dating until Halloween 2009.

Once they became a couple, they enjoyed experiencing GW together—seeing the Maroon 5 concert on campus in 2009 ranks high on their list of favorite GW memories. “We also attended each other’s graduation ceremonies, which I found really cool,” says Julian.

Today, you can find the couple in New York City; Ashley works as an HR assistant at NYU’s Stern School of Business, while Julian is a marketing coordinator in the Brand Marketing department of ESPN.
