After 15 years working across journalism and project management, Catarina realised she missed telling stories and is now redefining her career to pursue stories with impact.

Catarina shares how AFTRS helped her develop “the art, the science of putting together incredible listening experiences”, gain industry experience through placements and community radio, and build confidence as an audio storyteller.

Passionate about “stories that open hearts and open minds”, Catarina is now focused on creating human-centred, non-fiction storytelling that helps people feel seen.
