When Mandy moved back home to Charlotte after spending five years in Charleston, and Michael wrapped up six years of traveling as a pit crew member at NASCAR, the timing finally aligned. Mandy’s sister and Michael’s cousin, who are best friends in Savannah, put two and two together and realized they might just be the perfect match. Their two family members worked their unofficial professional matchmaking skills and gave Michael Mandy’s number. The two just had one picture to go off of before meeting, with little information. After Mandy waited two very long weeks (if you know Mandy, you know), the text finally came through from Michael asking her out to dinner. One date later, and they've been inseparable ever since!
