While attending Finger Lakes Community College, she met missionaries from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in a grocery store and she shortly started studying with them.

A few months later she met her future husband, Tracy Hall at the apartment complex where Tracy was moving in. She was working on a computer in the apartment as Tracy brought boxes in. Something went wrong and she vented her frustration in Japanese which caught Tracy's ear since he had learned an Asian language on his LDS mission, and they were soon spending lots of time together.
