Skills

A journalist, I have worked for almost 30 years with text, writing economic, business/company reports for daily newspapers and specialized magazines. Since 1997 I pivoted my career to data-driven journalism and work with large databases for investigative reporting. I also work with geo-referenced data for environmental coverage, oversight of public authorities, companies and individuals receiving public money. I do background check research for due diligence of Brazilian and Latin American companies. Flexibility to write on any topic. Critical thinking, analytical and abstraction capacity to seek solutions and capacity to learn constantly.
