note
Born by the shores of the Guarapiranga
Dam, Adriana didn’t take long to start
sailing. She learned to enjoy sports with
her grandfather who swam in the dam. She
studied photography and attended a
fashion course at the university. She tried
several sailing classes before opting for the
laser and has already conquered more than
one hundred titles within the country and
abroad. In London, she will participate in
the Olympic Games for the third time
(competed in the 470 class in Athens 2004
and the laser in Beijing 2008). She qualified
in the 41st position at the Perth World
Championship in December of last year.
