In May 2017, I traveled to Havana, Cuba, to serve as an organizer, photographer, and videographer for La Liga en Cuba, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting soccer and supporting its rapidly growing community. La Liga en Cuba provides Cuban youth with a safe and positive environment to cultivate values through competition, while offering coaches, referees, and volunteers opportunities to develop their skills in a professional setting.
Following the organization’s inaugural event, La Copa Artecorte, I produced a short documentary titled “The Beautiful Game,” which captures the transformative power of soccer in fostering community and personal development.
