Global Affection

With a love story that transcends time and space, Yves Paradis & Jenny Nieveen of OHLA Schools have experienced 3 proposals as a couple — once on a flight to Germany, another at the Eiffel Tower, and lastly atop the Empire State Building. “I kept all 3 engagement rings,” quips Jenny. Now happily together for 23 years, this power couple loves to give back by offering free English classes every Friday for hundreds of community members looking to learn the language. “We have cultivated a bond that is unbreakable, complementing one another in everything we do,” they say. “We have been exceptionally blessed to have created a world around us where we don’t ever compromise our love.”

Joyous Journey

Dr. Sunil Amin & Dr. Katie Amin work alongside each other at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. Before this power couple started saving lives together as doctors and getting involved with the University of Miami and Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center’s fundraisers for cancer research, they met in New York City at a bar aptly named “Happy Endings.” They liken their love story to When Harry Met Sally, and 11 years later, the pair look back fondly on their countless adventures and the journeys yet to come. Their advice for a long-lasting relationship: “Find your synergy as a couple,” they say. “Trust that love will steer you through the hard times and the good times.”
