Alexis comes from Brunoy, near Paris and moved to the US for his post-doc in February 2019. Shreya comes from Kolkata, India and grew up in the cities of Chandigarh and Gurgaon in northern India. She moved to the US for higher studies in 2018 and had just moved to New Haven for work in the summer of 2019.

At the end of summer that year, they met at a meet up event at a local restaurant ‘Cask republic’ and got talking. 3 years later, they still haven’t stopped. 

Shreya likes cooking and food photography while Alexis is an avid reader and enjoys playing the guitar. Together they love to travel and explore new places, restaurants and cuisines.
