Success, Creativity, & Identity
Catalina Sofia Dansberger Duque
I am a strategic communications and editorial leader whose work focuses on how institutions and communities tell stories of identity, creativity, and impact across cultures and disciplines. I bring extensive experience in higher education, research communications, and mission-driven organizations, with a focus on translating complex ideas into accessible narratives that engage diverse public audiences.
My work centers on developing storytelling frameworks that connect people, programs, and ideas across institutional and cultural boundaries. I have led communications strategy, editorial development, and multimedia storytelling initiatives involving faculty, researchers, artists, entrepreneurs, and community partners across higher education and independent practice.
In 2011, I founded Policarpa Media Studios, a strategic communications practice supporting organizations in clarifying their mission, strengthening narrative systems, and amplifying their public voice through integrated editorial, digital, and multimedia communications. My work emphasizes strengths-based storytelling and the role of communications in shaping institutional identity, public understanding, and engagement.
Throughout my career, I have collaborated with diverse communities and institutions to develop communications that reflect both lived experience and scholarly inquiry, with a consistent focus on clarity, inclusion, and the responsible representation of complex social and cultural narratives.
I am proud to belong to a ginormous, loud, beautiful, and successful Colombian-Egyptian-Argentinian-Puerto-Rican-U.S.-Filipino FAMILIA.
