Born Janeva Antonia Rivera in Honolulu, Hawaii, this Hispanic and African American mixed bombshell grew up in a military environment. She was a proud military brat that never lived in any state longer than three years while growing up. The military atmosphere was a blessing in disguise because it made Eva realize how lucky she was and how diverse she was becoming. Her family traveled everywhere, which allowed the aspiring model to see many places and bond with many cultures.
After graduating from high school in 1998, Eva attended Winthrop University and majored in psychology. School was always a part of her life and she always excelled among her peers. After her second semester came to an end, Eva began to question her future at the University. After listening to good advice from a college friend, Eva felt compelled to join the military. In the summer of 99, Eva spoke with her father and discussed her future with the United States Air Force.
Her father being a veteran of the Marine Corps, supported Eva and was excited for his daughters new adventure. She spoke with her father about a friend's experiences in the Navy and about Eva accomplishing her own goals in the Air Force. Little did she know when waking up from a nap one day, her father placed a number from a recruiter next to her. This was the beginning of a new life for Eva.
Later that year in September, Eva decided that it was time to officially join the military. After completing basic military training, she was stationed at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland where she met the man of her dreams. She married while stationed at Andrews and later gave birth to a daughter. Three years later Eva was stationed at Lackland AFB, TX, where she continued her dream of becoming an actress and model. Eva always wanted two children and near the beginning of 2004, her second child, a son, was born.
Eva has been acting since the age of three, and she was passionate about fashion since middle school. Her early childhood experiences involved school plays, dinner theaters, improvisation sessions, musicals, and dance performances. She had her first professional modeling picture taken at the age of 15. When it comes to modeling, her particular interests are print, magazines, and commercials. Eva always involved herself with local photo shoots from popular department stores like JC Penny and loves to be in front of cameras.
Eva's dream is to make modeling and acting her primary career so she can focus on her aspiration to the fullest. We are looking forward to following this beautiful and talented actress and model through her career. It won't be long before you see her in magazines, on television, and in the theater.
