Lover of life, people and good stories.
Welcome
Hi, I'm Ana Maria, I'm an international TV, radio and print journalist with 20 years of experience within the CNN family. For over a decade, I was based in LA where I hosted 'Escenario', an entertainment news show reaching more than 40 million viewers across 45 countries. In 2017, I traded red carpets for stock markets and worked as a top anchor for CNN Money Switzerland in Zurich until the office closed its doors in August 2020. Now, I'm an independent journalist, TV host and event moderator, serving clients across Switzerland and Europe, as well as providing on-camera media training.

Get to know me
I still get a rush from standing on a stage or in front of the camera and commanding an audience. I love it, and I’m not afraid to own it. But it wasn't always like this. I started as an intern at CNN to fulfill a college credit, and before I knew it, I was offered a job as a reporter and then as an anchor of my own show - in LA. Feeling like a fish out of water, I had to adapt quickly, learn to speak to the camera and get comfortable under the lights, among a million other things. And those skills I acquired then are with me to this day. Whether it’s live TV or hosting a Gala, when "the camera starts rolling", it’s game on. Read more about my professional journey.
