Camilla Costa - London/Brazil - BBC

Camilla Costa (@_camillacosta) is kind of a big deal. As a reporter for the BBC in Brazil, she broke the story of the Zika virus outbreak wide open. She's now just started as an data journalist for the BBC at the mothership in London, but has an extremely varied career before that. She's worked for Brazil's premier magazine and the top newspaper and had a streak of doing journalism for kids. We also discuss the cake scene from the movie Spotlight.
