Josue was a fantastic local producer in Cuba. I was the lead producer, working for the PBS NewsHour in Cuba the week that Fidel Castro died. Josue regularly made the impossible happen for us. Josue is resourceful, smart, very well-connected, very hard-working, and creative. I cannot recommend him enough.

I worked together with Josue twice over the last year while on assignment for the New York Times.  Josue was nothing short of amazing. He was always on time and everything that we scheduled or planned, worked out better than expected. I would absolutely recommend Josue in a heartbeat.
