A Pulitzer-nominated journalist with nearly two decades of reporting and editing experience, is the son of the late Gioia Marconi Braga, Marconi Society founder, and grandson of Guglielmo Marconi.
Fluent in Spanish and well-versed in Latin American economics and history, Braga began his journalism career in Venezuela in the mid-80s, writing for several agricultural publications and later reported for the Buenos Aires Herald. For 14 years, he worked for a series of business publications in Florida, including the Sarasota Herald-Tribune, which he joined in 2001. His trend-setting stories there exposed financial scandals in insurance, high technology and real estate, and he was promoted to Deputy Business Editor in 2007.
