Catalina joined as a Trustee in February 2024. With a deep-rooted connection to nature stemming from a childhood spent in the countryside - taking care of animals, planting, and harvesting crops - she found a piece of home in Spitalfields City Farm. Using her positive attitude, creativity and determination, she aims to develop and support the best conditions for the local community to (re)discover nature, learn, connect and to thrive.  

As a fixed income trader at HSBC, Catalina blends their financial acumen with a dedication to community engagement and environmental stewardship. She is committed to raising awareness, building engagement and empowering the spirit of giving back for the benefit of all - in view of creating a strong network of supporters sharing a common goal.
