Alberth Elis: Jugando Con Un Propósito
Alberth Elis pasó su niñez jugando futbol en uno de los barrios más peligrosos de San Pedro Sula, Honduras. Muchos de sus compañeros de infancia fueron víctimas de violencia o drogas y algunos terminaron en la cárcel. Pero desde muy temprana edad, los padres de Alberth le inculcaron a él y su hermano el amor y disciplina por el futbol y la importancia de cumplir con sus estudios. Así fue como el joven delantero empezó a jugar en las ligas profesionales, donde logró anotar goles que llevarían a su país a las olimpiadas de 2016. En Brasil anotó múltiples goles, incluyendo el gol triunfador contra Corea del Sur que los colocó en el cuarto lugar. Ahora, a sus 23 años, juega con los Houston Dynamos, donde también ha obtenido triunfos importantes para el equipo de la MLS. A pesar del éxito y fama, Alberth mantiene los pies sobre la tierra y nunca se olvida de sus raíces. Por eso, su nueva misión es apostar por el futuro de otros jóvenes como él, donando computadoras a escuelas de bajos recursos y compartiendo su tiempo con ellos para inspirarlos a que realicen sus sueños.

Encontrando La Calma Y El Ritmo Con Pedro Capó
Como hijo y nieto de una dinastía musical en Puerto Rico, Pedro Capó se crio rodeado de música y sabía que ese también sería su destino. Aun así, estaba convencido que para encontrar su voz, tendría que alejarse de la influencia de su legendario abuelo y papá, los dos Bobby Capó, y empezar de cero por sus propios méritos. Así fue como Pedro buscó su camino, primero en Minnesota y luego en Nueva York, cantando en clubs nocturnos y en las calles de la gran manzana y luego protagonizando en varias producciones musicales. Poco a poco, sus esfuerzos empezaron a dar fruto y logró establecer su nombre entre los grandes cantantes latinoamericanos. Hace poco, su mega-éxito Calma, ganó dos premios Grammys Latinos y el video musical que hizo con Farruko ha batido records mundiales, con más de mil millones de visitas en You Tube y millones más en otras plataformas.

Redefining the Narrative, One Day at a Time, with Justina Machado
Justina Machado’s lives by the motto that “It’s Never too Late.” After working for years as a supporting actor in popular television series, including HBO’s “Six Feet Under” and USA’s “The Queen of the South,” she landed her first lead role when she was in her early 40’s in the critically acclaimed show “One Day at A Time.” Like her on-screen character, Penelope Alvarez, in the re-imagined series from the 70’s, Machado is passionate about challenging stereotypes about what it means to be a Latinx family. She is especially proud to be part of a show that made its name by showcasing representation in all its forms, from PTSD, immigration, addiction, LGBQT, all of which she believes can help change the narrative. And because “it’s never too late,” she will be making her directorial debut next season as the show moves from Netflix to its new home at Pop TV.
