I began my career in the digital media space in São Paulo nearly two decades ago, creating websites and multimedia content while studying in Brazil. Back in Washington D.C., I worked as a web developer, bike messenger and shot videos as a hobby until my employer at the time (Chemonics International, Inc.) began to take notice. Just as YouTube and Facebook were taking shape, I began producing digital media content while living and working overseas in Latin America, Africa and the Middle East for many years. Fluent in Spanish and Portuguese, I have created award-winning content for clients such as USAID, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the Citi Foundation, the Gates Foundation, Voice of America and many other organizations around the world. The idea to start Rana Labs is the direct result of combining my global experience and learning while my passion stems from sharing what I have learned as a way to inspire new content creators.
