While on a work trip in San Diego, Mike was taking a flight back home when he noticed Tracy working as one of the flight attendants. He ordered a red wine from her during service which gave him the liquid courage he needed to chat her up in the back of the aircraft and then managed to get her his business card at the end of the flight. They had their first date in downtown San Jose at a sushi restaurant and they have been inseparable ever since.

The next few weeks involved a Giants game, Disneyland, and camping in the middle of nowhere with Mike's friends. Tracy would fly up to San Jose in between her work trips, and Mike would make it down to visit in San Diego. About a year into their relationship, Tracy put in her transfer to be based in SFO. She not only transferred her job location but transferred her entire life into all closets of Mike's house, making their living situation together permanent.

When Mike opened his place to Tracy, Tracy opened Mike to her travel benefits and from then on, they were taking to the skies together as often as possible.

Always on the move, Mike and Tracy's bond has been forged through many different experiences in many familiar and foreign places together - travel has become an integral part of their lives. They’ve blended old friends and new friends, their lives have come together and melted into one.

On October 19, 2021 Mike proposed to Tracy in her parents' backyard. They celebrated the engagement at an Eagles concert and playoff Dodgers game, and continued to celebrate for almost 3 years... no rush.

The time has come and they have officially set a wedding date, September 21, 2024. They are excited to celebrate with all of their close family and friends under the flight path in the city where their love story began, San Diego, California.
