Alan the Groom

I was born and raised in Baghdad, Iraq.  I spent 23 years of my life there, then my family decided to move to Erbil, Iraq because it was safer the live there.  

I was awarded a Fulbright scholarship in 2005, and in August 2006 I arrived in Boulder, Colorado to pursue a Masters degree in Telecommunications.  Coming to Boulder was a big adventure for me.  I liked the place right away.  I like the people and made many great friends.  I also started to get to like football.  Life seemed great, but the best is yet to come...

Meeting Megan changed my life forever.  I liked everything about that girl: her smile, her looks, her laughs, her honesty... the list goes on.  I knew that Megan was the one, and I'm getting even more confident about that day after day.

I am currently patiently waiting for my work permit to arrive, so I can begin working in the telecommunications field.  I hope to work for some of the top telecom companies in the Denver Tech Center.  I am really enjoying the move to Littleton, but I will miss being close to the Colorado Buffaloes football games.  I will have to make the drive up north every once and a while.  Overall, our future looks bright.
