Bio

Ana was raised in Brasilia, amongst 60’s modern architecture from Oscar Niemeyer’s concrete curved buildings, Athos Bulcao's amazing tile murals, to Burle Max gardens. “Of course at this time my surroundings were just home for me, for I didn’t realize how different my settings were and how much my city would influence me and my vision towards aesthetics”.

Prior to moving to the United States in 2010, Ana graduated in Communications at the University of Brasilia, soon after she earned a “Maitrise” degree in “Etudes Cinematographique et Audiovisuelle” at Sorbonne University III in Paris, where she lived for 4 years.

It was her return to Sao Paulo after her studies where she honed in on her passion for design while working with well-known interior designers and home décor magazines, as well as producing various photo shoots and photography content. After years of industry-related work, Ana moved on to open her own company, Sambaeventos – a design furniture rental business.

For the past 3 years Ana have founded and was the curator for “Le Magazyn”, a design concept store located in Venice Beach - there she could combining dealing with beautiful objects, art pieces, interesting customers, artists, and designers."It was an incredible experience to create Le Magazyn and extremely necessary for my growth as an entrepreneur in the LA design scene”.

“ My passion is to curate things and use my knack for design mixed with my many influences to produce an interesting and unexpected result. My challenge is to stay away from the obvious”.
