Eva has called Fresno her home for the past 16 years after college and collegiate sports brought her here. She has a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science and a Master of Science in Rehabilitation Counseling. She worked at Community Regional Medical Center for six years in the Leon S. Peters Rehabilitation department. Eva left the workforce for a season to focus on homeschooling her two children, Timothy and Madison. She has been fully immersed and active in the homeschool community and strongly advocates for Self-Directed Education - focusing on the strengths and gifts of the youth and their passion and interest to guide them through their education experience. 

She has also stayed active in the health and fitness world and has been a Personal Trainer for the past 12 years, with some breaks to focus on her children. She also taught group fitness classes at the Student Recreation Center at CSU Fresno where she was a certified instructor focusing on Tai Chi, Pilates and Yoga.

She also works at B-Alive Vitamins where she enjoys sharing her passion for holistic practices and alternative medicine.
