From Street Food In Mali To Thanksgiving In America
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention employees Ryan Novak and Leah Moriarty met around three years ago in a briefing room the night before they were to be deployed to Mali during the Ebola outbreak.
In the StoryCorps Atlanta booth, the couple reminisced about the early days as colleagues in West Africa and a special moment that took place over Thanksgiving one year ago.
