Catarina Mesquita

Catarina Mesquita was born in mainland Portugal, grew up in the Portuguese Island of Madeira and moved to Macau in 2013.

She is a writer and an editorial manager in love with the publishing world. In 2019, Catarina founded Mandarina, a children’s publishing house based in Macau with books in Portuguese, English and Chinese.
