About Sheila
Sheila's educational background began in political science, Italian studies, and international development, and after many years working as a writer and photographer for various companies, arts organizations, and NGOs, her interests brought her to Brazil. She is currently a consultant for Photovoice Brasil, and her love for music has facilitated an introduction to Rio de Janeiro's best music venues where she has photographed several performances. Sheila loves to explore Rio’s rich culture, and thanks to many tips from various Cariocas, or Brazilian natives, she has become familiar with some of the city’s hidden gems. In addition to her passion for the city and her knowledge of the Portuguese language, Sheila immerses herself into Rio life through her obsession with local cuisine and is constantly seeking out native dishes, fruits, and vegetables. Her past experiences as a culinary writer and critic comes in handy on these endeavors!
