Bloomberg News has moved Maria Luiza Rabello to its Washington breaking news team.
Rabello started reporting for Bloomberg in 2009 as a stringer, after having worked for Folha de Sao Paulo, Brazil’s biggest newspaper, and for two television networks. She was hired nine months later as a full-time reporter to cover the Brazilian Congress and former president Lula’s administration.
Since then, Rabello has covered Brazil’s Finance Ministry, three presidential elections, one impeachment, a former president’s trial and arrest.
She became a breaking news editor in 2014 and helped coordinate Brasilia’s restless coverage as deputy bureau chief from 2015 to 2019.
