Economist
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Priscila Snel photoPriscila Costa Snel Correa holds a BA in Economics and a graduate degree in business administration from the Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro (PUC-RJ). After some years working in the financial markets, Priscila embraced motherhood, became a stay-at-home mom to raise her three children and got involved in the school community.

A turning point in her life was joining a YPO Program called Life in Focus in India to learn about Vedanta, the ancient philosophy of life and living. Vedanta equips individuals with clarity of intellect to deal with the challenges of life.

Priscila has taken her passion for nutrition and healthy life attending an online course on Plant-Based Nutrition at Cornell. She became an enthusiast in healthy nutrition as one of the most important pillars for longevity as well as for physical and mental activity.

She has pursued a variety of interests like mountain and road biking and running outdoors to take advantage of the beautiful landscape in Rio as well as swimming in the open sea. A marathon still awaits on her bucket list.

For fun, Priscila enjoys planning family travels, skiing, reading, dining out with friends, watching trashy reality tv shows (yes!). She is married to Luciano, and even though neither are very good at it, they have lots of fun singing karaoke.
