Renata Nunes

Renata Nunes currently lives in Marietta, Oklahoma, but calls Zacarias, Brazil, home. As the daughter of a Professional Bull Riders’ legend and the 2010 PBR World Champion, Renato Nunes, Renata was born with a love of bulls.

When Renata was only a few months old, Renato relocated his family from Brazil to a ranch in Boyd, Texas, to pursue his bull riding career on the PBR rodeo circuit. In 2015, after an impressive career with millions of dollars in winnings, Renato decided to retire, and the family returned to Brazil. Renata spent her teen years living on her family’s sprawling bucking bulls ranch in Zacarias, until 2024, when her dream to compete in the United States compelled her to leave Brazil and move to Marietta, Oklahoma. Now on her own, she is pursuing her dream in America to win her first buckle and to carry on her father’s legacy.

When she’s not in the practice pen or riding bulls at a rodeo, Renata works at South Lake Ranch in Marietta, Oklahoma, where she cares for animals and embraces the true Western way of life. Most recently, she won a rodeo in Graham, Texas.
