Camille Jones ’16 and Ryan DeBlaey ’17

Couple sitting together in a hammock

Our story begins in a hammock in the fateful city of Laughlin, Nevada. While enjoying the sun during a weekend trip with 60 of our closest friends, I (Camille) saw a hammock that I absolutely had to sit in. The hammock was already occupied but I did not let that stop me from climbing right in. I then spent the next 8 hours getting to know the person with whom I would spend the rest of my life: Ryan DeBlaey.

Fast forward 5 years and we're engaged, living right down the street in El Segundo, frequently driving by our alma mater, and reminiscing about the day Ryan took me to the bluff and convinced me to give him a shot. Needless to say, LMU is a special place.
