Having several mutual friends from the surrounding area, Michael pursued Christina via direct message on Instagram in April of 2017. From there, a simple “Hey!!” turnt into forever. Our connection was instant from the first date. We shared a love for the New York Knicks and Sunday football. Due to Christina’s job at the time we moved to Stamford, CT in January, 2019 into our first apartment making many memories where we learned we loved to host. We hosted Superbowl, pool parties, game nights, New Years Eve and many BBQs. By that time, our friends became one. In 2021 we moved back to Westchester into a family owned condo conveniently close to Michael’s job as a fireman at Lake Mohegan Fire Department. Michael proposed on April 13, 2023 and Christina was excited and quick to jump onto planning!
