P
amela and Michael met in 2005 when
they were just 15 years old. They
worked together as lifeguards at a day
camp and developed a friendship over
the course of several summers. They didn’t start
dating until 2010 when they bumped into each
other at a party while they were both home from
college. Pamela was attending Marist College and
Michael was attending the United States Military
Academy at West Point. Michael would visit
Marist on weekends and Pamela would attend
Army dinners and balls at West Point. After
graduating from West Point in 2012, Michael was
commissioned as an officer in the Army. After
a couple years of long-distance dating, Pamela
moved to Colorado Springs in 2015. The couple
spent several years enjoying life in the Rocky
Mountains and Mike proposed to Pamela on
a snowmobile trip in Aspen in 2016.
