Madison and Gabe met in March of 2021 working as nurses together in the ICU. What began as a professional relationship quickly grew into genuine friendship. They used to joke that, from now on, they would only be able to work side by side. "Attached at the hip". For a time, they remained friends. But eventually, Madison realized she wanted to talk to Gabe all the time and be with him whenever possible. She decided to tell him how she felt. From that moment on, they were inseparable. Madison and Gabe officially began dating in January of 2023. Their relationship grew through shared goals, mutual support, and an unwavering friendship. In May of 2025, during a trip to Thailand just before Madison began CRNA school, Gabe proposed on a floating dock leading to a beautiful candlelit restaurant suspended in the middle of a pond. An unforgettable moment set in a beautiful place, marking the beginning of their next chapter together. They are deeply grateful for the path that brought them here and for the life they continue to build side by side, just as they've always been.
