Brazilian journalist and researcher; Co-Executive Director of Derechos Digitales, the Latin American digital-rights non-profit, alongside J. Carlos Lara. The co-direction model was introduced on 1 September 2021, with Venturini and Lara — both then members of the organisation's managerial staff — taking joint stewardship after Maria Paz Canales stepped down from a four-year tenure as Executive Director. Derechos Digitales' own about page frames Venturini as an "activist and researcher with over 15 years of experience in civil society organizations".

Venturini holds a journalism degree from the University of São Paulo and a Master's in Social Sciences with a focus on Education from FLACSO Argentina; she is a doctoral candidate in Social Sciences at Universidade Estadual de Campinas (Unicamp). Before joining Derechos Digitales' senior leadership she was a researcher at the Center for Technology and Society at the Fundação Getulio Vargas (CTS-FGV) law school in Rio de Janeiro, where she coordinated the "Privacy in the Digital Age" project, and a 2016 Google Policy Fellow placed with Access Now. She has served as an expert consultant to the Brazilian Internet Steering Committee (CGI.br) on its annual ICT and Education research since 2014 and is a member of the Latin American Network of Surveillance, Technology and Society Studies (LAVITS).

Under the Lara/Venturini co-direction Venturini coordinates Derechos Digitales' artificial-intelligence and inclusion programme line — analyses of how state-deployed AI and "data colonialism" shape Latin American publics, addressing the under-representation of Global South voices in AI governance debates. She is a co-author of the organisation's comparative regional study Decisiones automatizadas en la función pública en América Latina on automated decision-making in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, and Uruguay, and works with the A+ Alliance on mapping feminist principles for AI development across Latin America alongside María Paz Canales.
