ABOUT COLINE LACATENA

I am passionate about promoting ideas, brands, and causes (which I do far better than promoting myself). I believe my work speaks for itself, so here’s a glimpse into what drives me:1. I am a fast learner who rises to the challenge.About 7 years ago, I took a leap into the world of cybersecurity as a Marketing Assistant, despite knowing absolutely nothing about the field (other than that my birthday was a terrible password choice). But guess what? I nailed it. Why? Because I learn quickly and tackle challenges head-on.Fueled by curiosity and a strong commitment to growth, I’m always focused on improving and delivering quality results.2. I’m passionate about social justice & human rights.I’m that friend who, at dinner parties, has to be politely told to stop debating (but only because I’m really passionate about instigating change). I use my communication skills as a powerful tool for advocacy, amplifying voices and ideas that champion equity, human rights, and social justice.My professional life is dedicated to advocating for causes that uplift communities, break down barriers, and create a more equitable world. I’m not just here to talk about issues—I am willing to move the needle on what truly matters.3. Event planning & digital campaign mastermind.Multitasking? I’ve elevated it to an art form. Managing over 10 digital campaigns and 20 events /year is my version of the Olympics. Event planning is where I thrive—bringing people together and creating experiences that last.And when you see me scrolling through social media? It’s not just a guilty pleasure. It’s research, keeping me ahead of the latest trends and the most creative content strategies. I’m constantly honing my craft.4. I have strong communication skills through international experience.My passport is heavily stamped—USA, Canada, France, Luxembourg—you name it. With diverse international experience under my belt, I’ve learned to adapt to and communicate across cultures with ease.Flexibility is my middle name. Whether navigating new environments or collaborating with global teams, I thrive in diverse settings where communication is the universal language.5. I am team-oriented and driven by collaboration.I’m not just a solo performer—I believe in collective success. Thriving in collaborative environments, I’m all about bringing the best out of teams and achieving shared goals. Working together to create something great? That’s where the magic happens.Reach out if you want to chat about: • Innovation & communications strategy • Human rights & social justice • Italian food
