Born and raised in Brazil, Ana is thrilled to lead ACE’s marketing actions in her home country to contribute with this organization’s inspiring mission and positively impact the place she lives in and the planet.

In 2016, she started Braziliando, a social business that exists to generate positive transformations by promoting sustainable tourism, acting in partnership with traditional communities, such as indigenous peoples of the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest.

Previously, she worked in the marketing of L’Oréal, of a big Brazilian telecommunication company, and of a multinational recruitment firm, reporting directly to the CEO and starting the department from the ground.

She holds a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and a MBA in Marketing, both in Brazil. She studied a university semester in Bordeaux (France) and took some classes of the Sustainability Certificate at the University of California, Los Angeles, where she lived for one year.

She always can’t wait for the next trip (usually full of adventure and nature) and discovering new languages and cultures. She loves being with family and friends and doing whatever makes her feel alive. In her self knowledge journey, she took some Vipassana Meditation retreats and adopted psychoanalysis, journaling and yoga to her daily life.
