Introducing Carlotta Cataldi, Graphic Recorder
“I am so pleased to have found Carlotta Cataldi as the graphic recorder for our Generation Zeitgeist project. I was seeking someone who was able to take big, abstract concepts and present them in an accessible and fun format for our young audience. Carlotta’s work brought each lesson to light with relatable characters and a graphic style that is eye-catching and informative.” –Dr. Michelle Ferrier, Founder, TrollBusters; Executive Director, Media Innovation Collaboratory
“Few individuals can interpret curriculum content, while providing the illustrative graphic genius to successfully educate AND entertain. Carlotta Cataldi combines this unique expertise. Her visual product inspired an often difficult-to-reach teen demographic. So much so, that in a field trial, one student literally declared, “Finally, lessons that look kinda exciting, like something we’d actually WANT to read.”” –Barton James Christner, Director Online Education, TrollBusters
From Carlotta: My passion for agile and transparent communication, team work, together with my ability for deep listening and fast visualization skills, brought me to work with several experienced teams of facilitators and organizations all over the world, as a knowledge worker, a graphic facilitator, and a group facilitator.
