Biography
Catherine Lima is a bilingual multimedia journalist from Los Angeles, CA. She has a passion for seeking the truth and uses her skills to help others tell their stories. Sometimes people just want to be heard and she provides that ear to them. With a camera in one hand and her pen in the other, once she gets her gears going there is no stopping her. She gets her facts right and has great communications skills to get the answers that she needs. She is bilingual with an advanced proficiency in both English and Spanish that is needed in a professional setting. She is experienced in Adobe Creative Suite, Microsoft Office, Audacity, and Figma. Nothing escapes her keen eye (or ear) for details, which comes in handy when editing anything, whether it's writing, audio, video or photos.

By Catherine Lima| CALÓ News@ Tomé mi primer sorbo de café alrededor de los 5 años, tal vez incluso antes. Siempre que le digo eso a la gente, normalmente obtengo la misma reacción. Con los ojos bien abiertos exclaman: “¿Qué ?”Los que lo entienden, lo entienden. En 1992, mi madre emigró de El Salvador a Estados Unidos, en busca de una vida mejor después de haber vivido allí la guerra civil. De manera natural, por ser la mayor de tres, estoy más conectada con mi herencia salvadoreña.
By Catherine Lima| CALÓ News@ I had my first sip of coffee at about 5 years old, maybe even younger. Whenever I tell people that, I usually get the same reaction. Eyes wide open as they exclaim, “What?!” The ones who get it, get it. My mother migrated to the United States from El Salvador in 1992 in search of a better life after having lived through the civil war. Naturally, as the first-born of three, I am the most connected to my Salvadoran heritage.
By Catherine Lima| CALÓ News@ As a child, I had no concept of what race or ethnicity was until I started going to school in the late ‘90s. I remember filling out some forms in the first grade and somewhere on it read “Race: _____.” I wrote in “no,” and thought to myself, “I hate running.” I remember my teachers referring to my friends and me as “Latina,” but I was so confused because I thought they were saying “la tina,” which means “the tub” in Spanish. I asked my mom, but she couldn’t give me a straight answer at the time.
