Natacha has worked in the media industry for over twenty years and is a graduate of Brock University, Ontario Canada, where she studied Mass Communications and Film.  On her return to Trinidad she worked with Television Company AVM on a dynamic programme BOOK TALK with the late Dale Kolasingh and Jeremy Taylor.  She then spent four years at The Caribbean Agricultural Extension Project where she developed an Audio Visual Unit that produced radio and television programmes for farmers, and teaching aids for Agriculture students.  She also specialized in photography and dark room developing for publications.
 
She has since worked with Music Radio 97 from its inception and radio 104 where she developed a twice weekly radio programme for women -EVERY WOMAN, sponsored by Coca Cola.  EVERY WOMAN has seen a successful five-year run and has since been extended to three other radio stations.  She has worked in the print media with the prestigious Toute Bagai Publishing where she worked exclusively on MACO Caribbean Living.
 
Natacha first started in theatre "behind the scenes" working in sound, with Beef No Chicken and the 1987 performance of Wine of Astonishment, which won the Cacique Award that year in the category of sound.  She has since performed on stage with Mermade Shoppe on two productions and with Ragoo Productions.  Natacha has since immersed herself in radio and television and has written and produced documentaries for television.  She has also been seen hosting many prominent events.  Her voice can be heard on many radio and television commercials.
