Sandy & Leon met in the ER. In 2014, Leon was a new physician at the Inova Alexandria Hospital Emergency Department, while Sandy was an ER nurse with almost a decade of experience under her belt. Sandy immediately caught Leon's eye, so he decided to make his move. A Spanish-speaking patient was being triaged by Sandy. Despite his ten-word Spanish vocabulary, Leon swooped in & offered to translate for Sandy - a native of Colombia. When he was greeted with a smile and an exaggerated eye-roll, Leon knew he was in. A few weeks later, Leon and Sandy met up to watch Colombia and the US play in the World Cup. Colombia won that game, while both Sandy & Leon won each other's affection - forever.
