Hero Story
Vidal, a legal assistant for the non-profit Lighthouse Immigrant Advocates, was born and raised in Managua, Nicaragua. He grew up going to a culturally diverse school, being exposed to cultures like that of South Korea, Bangladesh, Haiti, Brazil, USA, among others since childhood. As a traveling musician, he has spent time in countries such as Panama, Costa Rica, Uruguay, Brazil, Argentina, among others, securing him the opportunity to acquire multicultural knowledge of different Latin American cultures and their history. Due to political unrest in Nicaragua, and his involvement in protests against the Nicaraguan Dictator, Vidal was a semester shy from majoring in Finance. He believes that every human being deserves the opportunity to live a life of dignity in peace and safety. His motivation and passion for immigration stem from his own personal experience undergoing the process and it has only grown stronger as he spends more time working at LIA.
