About
Born on June 7, 1990, Luitha Miraglia is a Brazilian presenter, producer, writer and occasional actress who currently fronts Shark Tank Brasil on Sony Channel. Viewers know her for translating the “business pitch” tension of the format into warm, everyday language—something she honed over a media career that began in 2008 and has ranged from MTV festival coverage to culinary shows on Band.
An FAAP Social Communication (Radio & TV) graduate, Luitha balances on-camera activity with brand narrative, corporate event hosting and independent digital initiatives. Equal parts curious, empathetic and humorous, her communication style has earned her a celebrity host status among entrepreneurs, investors and mainstream audiences alike.
Before Fame
Long before television, Luitha’s first paid gig was dressing up as a princess at children’s parties—an early clue that performance was in her DNA. Theatre school followed, with roles in musicals such as Wicked (2008) and Ópera do Malandro (2010), plus a stint studying dance and singing at São Paulo’s Casa de Artes Operária.
While finishing university she produced and wrote for outlets like SBT, Rádio Disney, Portal Terra and Editora Abril, switching to on‑camera work in 2012 with the debate show Sinais on TV FAAP. She later reported for MTV Brasil—covering Tomorrowland Brasil—and for Band’s food series Cozinha do Bork as well as MasterChef Brasil. Each stop sharpened her ability to guide conversations, a skill that would become central on Shark Tank Brasil.
