@christinelacayo
I build multilingual content strategies that grow engagement for mission-driven and ocean-focused organizations.
What I'm looking for
I lead content at Monterey Bay Aquarium, creating culturally relevant English- and Spanish-language content across web, email, social, SMS, advertising, and print for sustainable seafood, animal rescue, ocean research, and public education.
I've helped mission-driven brands build engaged, diverse audiences through multicultural marketing, multilingual storytelling, market research, content calendars, and brand messaging. Through Christine Marie Lacayo LLC and Siembra Studios, I've produced blogs, emails, translations, websites, and voice guides for purpose-driven organizations.
My communications work spans clean energy, environmental advocacy, sustainability, and marine conservation. At Greenlink Analytics, I supported communications for energy-equity tools and partnerships advancing clean energy; I also coordinated a youth network across 100 countries with Earth Charter International Secretariat.
